lithographer
Prints from stone
A lithographer is a person who practices lithography—a printing process where images are drawn on stone or metal plates treated so that ink adheres only to the marked areas.
Historically, lithographers were skilled artisans who prepared plates and operated presses.
Today the term may describe artists who create original prints using lithographic techniques: The lithographer pulled a limited edition of fifty prints.
