An excerpt from "How to appreciate Prints"
by Frank Weitenkampf, L. H. D.
Chief of the Print Division of the
New York Public Library
In stippling the plate is covered in the usual
manner with an etching ground, to which the
outline ofthe proposed design can be transferred
from a pencil drawing on paper by laying the
drawing, face downward, on the ground, and pass
ing plate and paper through a press. The de
sign is then executed on the ground, as in etch
ing, with a point, the dots being coarser and
farther apart, or finer and closer together, accord
ing to the strength and darkness, or the delicacy
and light, which the artist wishes to produce.
The plate is then bitten, stopped-out with Bruns
wick black where desired, and re-bitten, as in
etching, and can then be finished on the bare
copper, scraper and burnisher also being used for
removing burr or reducing work.
"Stipple, seen at its best, represents a quite
special expression of the art of a special period,
and answers to a quite special taste. A suitably
selected and framed Print by Bartolozzi will
make a harmonious and quietly effective deco
ration for the wall of a room furnished and
decorated in a light and graceful style, based on
or similar to that of the period to which the
print belongs. Stipple engraving, like mezzo
tint, is the outcome of the period in which it
particularly flourished, and in its finest expres
sion it practically ended with that period.

Like mezzotint, also, it has become identified
with England, so that it has sometimes been re
ferred to on the Continent as la maniere Ang-
laise. Introduced by W. W. Ryland from France
into England, the art attained an extraordinary
popularity there in the second half of the eight
eenth century.
The name of Francesco Bartolozzi has become
almost synonymous with stipple engraving in
England. Practicing the art at the time of its
greatest vogue, he made it peculiarly his own.
In the paintings of Angelica Kauffmann and
Cipriani he found subjects which, * * * lent
themselves remarkably well to reproduction in
this manner of engraving.
Among his ablest pupils were L. Schiavonetti,
P. W. Tompkins, William Nutter, Henry Meyer,
Delattre, J. K. Sherwin, and Caroline Watson.
