- Abstract
One of the many practitioners of trades and techniques engaged by Tsar Peter the Great during his visit to the Dutch Republic in 1697-8, was the Amsterdam printmaker Adriaan Schoonebeek (1661-1705). Within the framework of this appointment Schoonebeek wrote a concise manual of the technique of etching. This article presents an edition of this oldest complete Dutch etching manual, together with a modern English translation.
