I would like to see some master engraving in the highest details.
I know Phill Coggan shows us fabulous engraving in quite a big size
The scenes he made, and as far that I understand, they are not done with dots but lines.
But this can’t bee seen, of course it are small lines.
I have read somewhere in this Café that Phill can put 40 lines in the same direction in One mm.
I understand that it is not something you masters like to share.
But perhaps some high resolution scan (600dpi) of just one scroll?
This because I never saw en master engraving in real life, and if I knew where to find one, I would have to touch them to look at them with my x10 loupe.
I think it would help a lot as study material to have some high details of cutting and shading.
And I know it is not easy to make a good photo, perhaps a photo true the microscope?
