Templates of drawings, images or photographs are transmitted to a wooden plate cut across the fiber instead of a knife with a wooden die, processed and then printed on paper. Since these wooden stings are printed directly from the wooden stick without photomechanical reproductive processes, they are original graphics! Especially in the period between 1850 and 1900 they served in books and magazines of the 19th Century Illustration purposes. This is also explained why wooden stings were almost always printed together with text articles and often have a text on the back. Wood engravings almost always come from print media (newspapers, illustrated magazines or books) of the 19. Century.
