Note: technique “copper engraving by burin” is the oldest technique of printmaking. It is the process to engrave lines directly on the surface of metal plate by hand with burin (engraving tool with sharp edges) without any chemical process like “etching”, though it belongs to the same Intaglio category as “etching”. The most famous historical artist of this technique is Dürer
