What is "woodcut"?

Woodcut is a printing technique where an image is carved into a block of wood. The raised areas of the wood block are inked, while the cut-away areas remain uninked. When the inked block is pressed onto paper, the image from the raised parts transfers to the paper. This method is known for its bold, graphic quality and is often used for creating prints with strong lines and textures, making it popular for illustrations and artistic prints.
