@broniebrown Ah, I was going to say "shameless reskin" but hey... close enough ^^

@critialcloudkicker It fascinates me how similar these pictures are with the tools they had in the 1800s and how the little differences affect the image.

@broniebrown I think an excellent way to copy or resize a physical drawing is to make a grid over it and reproduce the grid on the second piece of paper. This method may have allowed artists to plan their works in sketchbooks before expending ink on canvases or walls.

@loveydoe Yeah. There are some techiques but the amount of detail that is preserved in all copies is still very remarkable like the creases in the horse's skin.
