The beautiful high quality prints of Mikulas Kravjansky are created by the old master technique of Intaglio on hand made paper with heavy embossing and metallic inlays. These are truly the work of a master print maker and artist. Each piece is entirely hand made and thus each piece within the edition is unique.
