Description:

This is an oleograph print from 1920s  of Burk-e-Albani from the Ravi Ravi Varma Press.

What is Oleography?

The Greek word litho means 'stone' and graphein means 'to write' so Lithography can be defined as 'stone printing'. The printing plate originally used were porous stones. The priting portion of the stone plate was treated to absorb ink and the nonprinting area was treated to repel ink. Depending on the number of colours present, an oleograph could take months to produce by very skilled workers.
