Woodcut:

In this relief technique, the artist carves away the non-printing areas of a wooden block, leaving the design raised on the surface. Ink is rolled onto the raised areas, and paper is pressed onto the block to transfer the image. Known for its bold lines and graphic clarity, woodcut has been used by artists from Albrecht Dürer to contemporary printmakers, valued for its directness, expressive potential, and connection to traditional craftsmanship.
