1 gen 22 anni a. C. - Printing Press using wood blocks

Descrizione:

Woodblock printing is a technique for printing text, images or patterns used widely throughout East Asia and originating in China in antiquity as a method of printing on textiles and later paper. Prior to the invention of woodblock printing, seals and stamps were used for making impressions.

We haven't seen a printing press in person nor heard of anyone still working with it but we have seen photographs of it. Our teacher also discusses about in class that is why we have a little idea of how it looks like and how it works.
