Results for lithography

1. The art or process of putting designs or writing, with a greasy material, on stone, and of producing
printed impressions therefrom. The process depends, in the main, upon the antipathy between grease and water,
which prevents a printing ink containing oil from adhering to wetted parts of the stone not covered by the
design. See Lithographic limestone, under Lithographic.
