The lithographer is the one who deals with lithography, a chemical-physical printing technique of images. The procedure is based on the use of a flat matrix: the printing and non-printing parts are placed on the same plane. By lithography we also mean the reproduction obtained with this procedure. The principle is extremely simple: a particular type of stone, suitably smoothed and then drawn with a greasy pencil, has the peculiarity of retaining a thin veil of water in the non-drawn parts (called counter-graphics), which the fat sign (called graphism) instead it rejects.
