This work delves into the rich history and technical evolution of engraving, exploring its various methods from relief to intaglio, and the developments across different regions, particularly focusing on European engravers. The beginning of this work introduces readers to the ancient roots of engraving, discussing its practices among historical civilizations such as the Egyptians and Romans. It details the evolution of engraving techniques over centuries, mentioning the methodologies of wood engraving and copperplate engraving while highlighting the transition to printmaking and interactions with the invention of movable type.
