BRASS RUBBINGмемориальный отпечаток (okopnik)
BRASS RUBBINGмемориальный оттиск (Wikipedia, // Brass rubbing was originally a British mania for reproducing brasses – commemorative embossed brass reliefs found in church memorials from the 14th and 15th centuries – onto paper. The concept of recording textures of things is more generally called making a rubbing. What distinguishes rubbings from frottage is that rubbings are meant to reproduce the form of something being transferred, whereas frottage just desires to use rubbing to grab a random texture.Brass rubbings are created by laying a sheet of paper on top of a brass and rubbing the paper with graphite, wax, or chalk. // BRITISH BRASS RUBBINGS.COM = britishbrassrubbings.com okopnik)
