Wood Engravings

Discover original limited edition wood engravings by some of Britain’s finest printmakers. Created by engraving into the end grain of hardwood using specialist tools, wood engravings are renowned for their extraordinary precision and intricate detail. Once engraved, the block is inked and printed either by hand using traditional burnishing methods or on a relief printing press such as an Albion press. The technique has a rich history in British art and continues to inspire contemporary artists, producing prints of remarkable subtlety, craftsmanship and character.
