		Drypoint is a method of intaglio printmaking in which the artist scratches directly on the metal plate with a sharp instrument such as an etching needle.
		The most characteristic feature of drypoint is the rich, feathery aspect of the lines (such as the vertical line at the right of the image, or the lines that describe the arms of the chair).
		When the drypoint line is scratched into the metal plate the tool creates a ragged burr on either side of the line.

	Drypoint: The Challenging—and Rewarding—Art of Drawing With a Needle on a Metal Plate
		Drypoint, the simplest method for producing intaglio prints—the family of printmaking that involves cutting into a metal plate—is viewed by many of its practitioners as a type of drawing.
		Drypoint is the process of cutting lines into a soft metal plate with a hard, sharp needle, then wiping down the plate with a thin film of ink and passing the plate through a printing press.
		Drypoint yields few prints because its unique characteristic wears down during the printing process—the so-called “burr” is thrown up on either side of the line as the needle digs into the metal plate, much like the earth that is overturned as the plow cuts its furrow.

	Tate \| Glossary \| Drypoint
		Drypoint is usually done on copper plates as the softer metal lends itself to this technique.
		Due to the delicate nature of the burr, drypoint is usually made in small editions, stopping before the burr is crushed by the pressure of the intaglio press.
		Drypoint is often combined with other etching techniques.

	Rembrandt and the Technique of Etching
		Rembrandt's masterly use of the drypoint and the unique deep fl of many of his etchings were famous even in his own day and his work was much sought after by the many print collectors of the time.
		The drypoint is an etching needle with a sharp point strong enough to carve lines in the copper.
		He can add or deepen lines by etching the plate again or by using the drypoint, but etched lines can also be erased: shallow ones by rubbing them with a burnisher so that the burr and the sides are pushed into the groove, deep ones by scraping with a scraper.

		Drypoint is a printmaking technique of the intaglio family, in which an image is incised into a plate (typically copper, zinc, or plexiglas) by scratching the surface with a hard, sharp metal (or diamond) point.
		Because the pressure of printing quickly destroys the burr, drypoint is useful only for very small editions; as few as ten or twenty impressions.
		Among the most famous artists of the old master print: Albrecht Dürer produced 3 drypoints before abandoning the technique; Rembrandt used it frequently, but usually in conjunction with etching and engraving.

	The Printed Image in the West: Drypoint \| Thematic Essay \| Timeline of Art History \| The Metropolitan Museum of Art (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The simplest method for producing intaglio prints is drypoint, in which a sharp stylus or needle is used to scratch lines directly into the metal plate.
		Drypoint, however, is not a very practical technique for producing multiple images, for the delicate burr wears away so quickly that only a small number of good impressions, no more than a dozen, can be taken from the plate.
		A few, such as Andrea Mantegna and the Master of 1515, created the effect of drypoint in some of their engravings by allowing the metal burr, normally scraped away when engraving, to remain at the edges of the lines they cut with a burin.

		drypoint an intaglio printing process in which the lines are scratched directly into a metal plate with a needle; also, the print made from such a plate.
		It differs from engraving in the type of tool employed and the consequent shallowness of the line.
		In drypoint the burr raised by the needle is usually left on the plate, producing a rich, velvety effect.

		Drypoint is an intaglio printmaking process, similar to etching, but without the use of any chemicals.
		The technique is usually done on copper plates where the artist scratches directly onto the plate with a sharp pointed tool such as an etching needle.
		Drypoints prints are processed in the same way as etchings, by first inking the plate, then wiping it clean with scrim.

		A type of etching where the lines are made by scratching directly into the plate with a sharp point.
		It is also hard to make beautiful flowing lines with drypoint, so it is normally combined with hard ground etching for best effect.

		This large-scale drypoint print, with its deeply gouged and delicately incised lines, measures 15 by 17½ inches and was executed in Amsterdam between 1653-55.
		Soon he was deliberately dragging the sharp drypoint across his plates to raise a delicate curl of copper (called ‘burr’) along one edge of his incision to capture extra ink and print accents of velvety fl.
		Not only does fragile drypoint burr rapidly wear away under repeated pressure in the printing press, but making such a large print entirely in drypoint needed considerable muscular strength, suggesting that the artist had to hold his tool with both hands to score the deepest gouges.

	Drypoint Technique
		In drypoint, the artist "draws" directly on a copper plate with a sharp stylus.
		The point of the stylus creates a "burr" of copper on either side as it is scored through the metal.
		Because the copper burr wears down from the weight of the press, Norrman kept his print editions small (sometimes as few as four prints in an edition) in order to retain the delicate clarity so characteristic both of Norrman's work and of the drypoint technique itself.

		Drypoints are made by carving an image into a matrix (usually a metal or plastic plate) with a very sharp, hard steel tool with a diamond-tipped point called a needle.
		As the drypoint needle digs into the surface of the plate, it kicks up a burr of the metal or plastic — much as a plow creates furrows in the earth.
		An experienced drypoint artist incorporates and manipulates the burr for maximum effect.

		A process of engraving upon a copper plate with a burin, scoring deeply into the plate, creating a furrow bordered by rough, upturned edges (the burr), which hold the ink.
		In line engraving, the slight burr made by the burin is removed, but in drypoint engraving the burr is left.
		Therefore, prints taken from a drypoint engraving have a special velvety fl line.

	Signed Drypoint By Jacques Villon
		Jacques Villon (Gaston Duchamp), brother of Marcel Duchamp and Raymond Duchamp-Villon, the sculptor, was born in Damville in 1875.
		Between 1899 and 1910 Villon made 175 etchings, drypoints and aquatints of which many were under the direction of Eugene Deliatre, who had helped Mary Cassat with the difficult technique.
		"The slashing drypoint lines and angular treatment of the background figures as well as the beach below are more typical of the works of 1907, and not at all with the works of 1904, which still had a decidedly bell-epoque treatment".

		I became tantalized by pearlescent pigments and the wax medium was proving to be a suitable vehicle to not only carry a pigment in the paper, but to create a luminosity, transparency, and a means to impasto the drypoint lines.

		For the drypoint technique, the lines of the image are scratched directly into a plate with a sharp needle called the drypoint needle.
		For the plates, tin or copper is the preferred material for the drypoint technique.
		From a commercial point of view, drypoint has the disadvantage of a fast wear of the plates.
