Gal-van′o-graph.


Engraving.) An Austrian process. A plate of silvered copper is covered by an artist with different coats of a somewhat transparent pigment, so that on the dark portions the paint is thick and raised, and the surface is relatively depressed in the light tints. A copy of this is made by the electrotype process, the darker being now the deeper portions, the whole forming an intaglio, like a copperplate, and is printed from by the copperplateprinting process.
