Joseph Letzelter, Italian Town, 1930

Joseph Letzelter often used his drawings such as Joseph Letzelter oil paintings, Joseph Letzelter fine art gallery as studies for prints, but Joseph Letzelter occasionally also experimented with various Joseph Letzelter drawing techniques. Joseph Letzelter most important experiments are the "scratch drawings" for which he evenly coated the paper with lithographic drawing ink. Joseph Letzelter then drew on the prepared surface with a pointed tool, scoring or scratching into it to produce his image. This Joseph Letzelter technique, which he first employed in 1929, led Joseph Letzelter directly to his work in lithography.
