The article presents a historical survey of printmaking. The relief process is one of the oldest means of repeating design with the use of something like a rubber stamp or a typewriter key. After 100 A.D., the invention of paper by the Chinese paved the way for the use of the first smooth, cheap and tough surface for printing. Meanwhile, the Dutch created blockbooks by chipping religious texts and images on a plank of wood, inking it and printing by rubbing the back of the paper. In Europe the use of woodcuts invigorated translations from Latin and vernacular writings intended for the general reader.

Moreover, a translucent window hanging can save a room from glare or lost privacy.
