Die Lithografin & Der Typograf - SET
type: Product
description: The set includes the successful children's non-fiction books on art practices and crafts: The Lithographer and The Typographer. The Lithographer gradually reveals the secrets of the fascinating art of lithography – a printing technique whose astonishing effects seem almost magical. It shows how fat and water repel each other, how drawings disappear only to reappear later. Using various techniques such as drawing, inking, etching, rolling, and the use of sand, the magical images finally emerge. The artistic picture book itself is designed in the style of a lithograph – in the colors blue, red, and yellow – and takes us to the origins of this fascinating reproduction technique. It tells of the many experiments of the inventor Alois Senefelder, who over 200 years ago sought ways to more easily reproduce thoughts, music, and art. Even today, lithography remains an extraordinary art form, and the processes developed from it are the basis for printing books, newspapers, and posters. The fascinating non-fiction picture book The Typographer takes children on an exciting journey into the world of book printing and typography. Clearly and child-friendly, the book explains how lead type, type cases, and printing presses work. The lovely illustrations immerse children in the centuries-old craft and show why typography is not only technology but also art. Perfect for little explorers who love to learn new things and be visually inspired. Recommended for children aged 6 and up. Gaby Bazin (*1992) lives in Pantin near Paris.
