The Woodburytype has no grain whatsoever, because it does not use cracks or dots to reproduce tone. Instead, a relief mold is made of the image in lead, so that the areas of dark tone are deep and light tone shallow. Ink suspended in gelatin is cast in the mold, and the resulting print produces contrast by the thickness or thinness of the ink.\" (Linda Hall Library, Face of the Moon)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Muir Way","offers":[{"title":"16 x 20 Inches \/ No Frame","offer_id":50710876618945,"sku":"ttt1791585445079","price":40.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 x 20 Inches \/ w\/ Black Frame","offer_id":50710876651713,"sku":"xnf1791585445080","price":200.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 x 20 Inches \/ w\/ Walnut Frame","offer_id":50710876684481,"sku":"sgn1791585445081","price":155.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0870\/2535\/2897\/files\/1874-tycho-moon-crater-print_1.jpg?v=1791585449","url":"https:\/\/argyleknitfit.shop\/products\/1874-tycho-moon-crater-print","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
