Answer:
(attached are the images in question)
Image 1 is a Linocut
Image 2 is a wood engraving
Explanation:
Image 1 is done with the Linocut technique, which is a variant of woodcut in which a sheet of lino is used for a relief surface, a designed is cut into the surface, where the raised areas represent a reversal of the image that will be printed. Then a roller is used to ink the sheet in order to imprint it to paper or fabric. The wood engraving technique is similar, an artist carves an image into a block of wood, and then uses relief printing, applying ink to the face of the engraving and prints using low pressure. Image 1 has many dark values, bold lines and images without many details, and the values are created by the thickness of the lines; whereas Image 2 , the values differ based on the detail of the engraving and the amount of ink. Image 2 also has a lot of details and is a photo-realistic image of an owl, and Image 2 is a nonrealistic representation of a Spanish matador in a bull ring fighting a bull. Both images are in black and white.
