Serving Slave
Graphic Print, Dry Point on copper plate
I am a big idiot!! I don't know how many times I've done text on a
copper plate, not noticing until the first test print that I forgot
to reverse the text on the plate, which will of course make the text
mirrored on the print... where it shouldn't be mirrored!! (Becuase
I'm not da Vinci -_-) The text behind the slave says 'Servus Festiva
Mea Utor' Which was me trying to say 'I'm your slave during this party,
use me!' But since I haven't got a clue about Latin grammar I soon
realized that that is probably not the right way to say that at all. So
I gave it up, and only made a few test prints. It might be fun to know
as well that this is not the true size of the print. It's much, much
smaller in reality, about the size of the thumbnail:
