Definition from Wikipedia:
Bakrorez ili gravura je grafička tehnika u kojoj se u bakrenu ploču oštrim udubljivačem urezuje crtež, čija se udubljenja, potom, ispunjavaju bojom

Example sentence(s):
  • Prije otkrića fotografije, graviranje se koristilo za reprodukciju ostalih umjetničkih oblika, primjerice slika. Gravure su nastavile biti uobičajene u izradi novina i mnogih knjiga u ranom 20. stoljeću pošto su bile jefitinije za korištenje u tisku od fotografskih slika. Graviranje se također oduvijek koristilo kao metoda originalne artističke ekspresije. - Wikipedia
