They used a bit different technique that is called in Russian tortsovaya graviura - can&#039;t find an equivalent in English, but it&#039;s when in the process of preparation of the board, the wood is cut not along its natural lines as in traditional xylography, but across them, and then the small parts are merged together, making the board more lightweight and resistant, and, therefore, able to accommodate more details.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
