Studio note
Here the black is paper rather than ink: a Gmund Ink Black face duplexed to a cotton back that takes your black letterpress contact block. The copper point is foiled and embossed in register, so it rises off the black like a surveyed benchmark. Your thumb finds the raised point before your eye does.
