Printmaking holds an important place in the history of art as a medium, revolutionising artistic practices and accessibility. Since the 16th century, printmaking has played a significant role in fine art, enabling the mass production of artworks and making creativity more accessible. The introduction of editioning further expanded its reach, allowing artists to distribute multiple impressions of their work worldwide, making art more widely available to audiences and collectors.
