Fabriano Rosaspina Printmaking Paper 285gsm 56 x 76cm – Ivory

Rosaspina is one of Fabriano's classic printmaking papers, a soft, absorbent, cotton-rich sheet that has been used by printmakers for generations. Its gentle surface and good bulk let it press into the plate or block to pick up fine detail, making it a dependable choice for etching, engraving, lithography and relief printing.

Each 285gsm sheet measures 56 x 76cm and is available in white or a warmer ivory. Rosaspina can be printed dry or dampened, depending on the technique, and its soft surface also makes it pleasant for drawing and for mixed-media work that does not involve heavy washes.

It is a popular paper in college print rooms and studios thanks to its consistent quality and its sympathetic, slightly toothy feel.
