Tim Rudman's original book on Lith printing, The Master Photographer's Lith Printing Course, is still universally recognized as the number one authoritative work on the subject of Lith printing, exploring the process's unique ability to produce either strongly graphic or exquisitely delicate prints that respond beautifully to toning. Since it was first published, in 1998, the techniques revealed and explained have gone on to attract an ever growing number of followers, and Tim is largely credited with the current popularity of this creative technique.
Since The Master Photographer's Lith Printing Course was released, there have been significant changes and developments in the world of Lith printing - materials and techniques for 'traditional' lith printing have come and gone, and new digital methods have been introduced, which either simulate the process or in other ways further expand its creative potential. Tim's original work is still highly relevant today, but the field has moved on considerably and a vacuum has been created in the published knowledge available.
Tim's new book, The World of Lith Printing, was conceived to be the ultimate companion to his original work by tackling these new developments and bringing the Lith printing community up to date with techniques, materials and references. This new book is not an updated version of the Master Photographers Lith Printing Course... it's a companion to it. It is also about bringing the Lith printing community together. Recognizing the fact that after information and instruction we require insight and inspiration,The World of Lith Printing includes invited portfolios by leading practitioners from around the world. They show what can be achieved by adopting their very different approaches to lith printing, both traditional and digital, as well as explaining how the various effects have been achieved.
