A trick question, though. The words burin and baren sound alike, and they're both things that are used in printmaking. So, you're on the right track.However a burin is for engraving on metal plates (and on wood engraving blocks) and a baren is used for printing woodcuts or similar kinds of relief printing - and sometimes just as a "rubbing" tool. Baren is a Japanese word associated with the Japanese method of printing a woodcut.Please try again.- GM |
