11 jan 1652 ano - Most early methods of color printing
involved several prints, one for each color, although there were
various ways of printing two colors together if they were
separate. Liturgical and many other kinds of books
required rubrics,
normally printed in red; these were long
done by a separate print run with a red forme for
each page. Other methods
were used for
single leaf prints.
The chiaroscuro woodcut was a
European method developed in the 16th century
