Etching, etching (Italian: acquaforte - strong water or nitric acid) - concave graphic technique, also a print obtained using this technique. The etching technique was invented at the turn of the 15th and 16th centuries, and it was popularized in the 16th century [1].

It consists in making a metal printing plate with a drawing obtained by etching. A copper or zinc plate is covered with an acid-insoluble etching varnish and then a drawing is made with a steel needle revealing the metal surface [2]. By dipping the plate in acid, the deep drawing on the plate is etched. In order to deepen the lines in the dark parts of the drawing, this process is repeated several times. After the final etching and removal of the varnish, the printing ink is rubbed into the plate, which is only retained in the etched depressions. The ink pressed into the etched recesses of the plate is transferred to the paper under pressure in a gravure press [3].

The etching was used by: Albrecht Dürer, Rembrandt, Jacques Callot, Francisco Goya [4], Giovanni Battista Piranesi, James Abbott McNeill Whistler, Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso, Taras Szewczenko, Daniel Chodowiecki, Jan Piotr Norblin, Michał Płoński, Leon Wyczółkowski, Mehoffer, Józef Pankiewicz, Wojciech Weiss, Zbigniew Rabsztyn, Józef Pieniążek, Magdalena Gintowt-Juchniewicz, Cezary Paszkowski, Barbara Rosiak, Leszek Rózga, Barbara Narębska-Dębska, Tadeusz Michał Siara, Beata Nehring.
