[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 280047, member: 56"]Running an intaglio print through a press is known as pulling the print. A note on color: Most frequently, color is added to an intaglio print by hand painting, usually with water color. This can be done any time after the print has been pulled, and it's not uncommon that a print be colored many years, even decades, after it came out of the press. There is a technique, called [I]a la poupee, [/I]which has colored inks applied directly to the plate before the print is pulled. The inks are worked into the appropriate areas of the design with stubs of cotton fabric, called dollies or, in French, [I]poupee.[/I][/QUOTE]
