Aren’t those Hitlers?


Yes.

Adolph Hitler was mentioned before Mozart.

Checks out.

... and you have to draw the artwork as a mirror image & inverted colors. The ink soaks into tv white areas of the stone,not the areas drawn on with black grease. When you print it the image is reversed so the artwork has to be done backwards

Artists are so strange. Why not just paint or draw on paper?


Back in the day you couldnt make multiple prints of a drawing on paper.

You can argue Divinci but it most certainly is close. Look at Shakespeare, michaelangelo, Rembrandt, Picasso, Chaucer, Dickens. I’m not saying any one of them are the greatest, but they all have a case.

Picasso
Picasso excelled in so many different mediums. He created masterful traditional paintings as well as abstract, and everything in between.

If not him, it's Leonardo or that Kinkaid guy with the light and shadows.

No doubt. I just finished a biography of him. He was a true genius in every sense. He would be my pick for art. Music would be Mozart.

Prince.

Wrote more good music for himself and other artists than virtually anyone.

In terms of cultural impact, there are 3 that stand clearly above the rest:

Michelangelo, Da Vinci, and Shakespeare

How many prints can a stone lithography process make before reapplying ink?

One. Then you get the stone wet and roll it with ink again. You can potentially get hundreds of prints from the same stone although you may have to do touch-ups here and there.

The whole process is based on the fact that water and oil don't want to mix.

The ink is oil-based and sticks to the stone where the drawing was. The water in the rest of the stone repels the oil-based ink.

No, it sticks to the areas that were drawn with the pencil, not the stone. Dark areas in the drawing will be dark on the print. Maybe you're thinking of relief printing like linocut or woodcut?

You are correct it is a mirror image though.

My #1 choice is, without a doubt, The Beatles.


I love The Beatles but I wouldn't even put them in the Top 10 greatest artistic portfolios by composers or performers of all time. Much less all artists from around the world of all time.

If it's Pop/Rock artists, The Beatles rise to the top, but all art over all of human history (and not just from the Western world)....

No.

For me, if I just limit it to music, it would be Bach. While he is not always my favorite composer to listen to, his amazing artistry, craft, massive output as well as his influence over western art music for the last 300 years means he casts a long shadow.
