Record Type: concept
light-and-shade watermarks (watermarks, <marks by location or context>, ... Visual and Verbal Communication (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to detailed watermarks produced by a relief sculpture on the paper mold. The technique was supposedly invented in 1848 by the Englishman William Henry Smith. The light and shade watermark created more detail than the wire watermark. It is often used in paper money to make counterfeiting more difficult.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 指用紙模上的浮雕所製造的精細浮水印。此種技術據稱係於西元1848年,由英國人威廉‧亨利‧史密斯(William Henry Smith)所發明。光影浮水印比金屬線浮水印更加精細,通常用於紙幣,以達更佳防偽造效果。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar gedetailleerde watermerken die worden geproduceerd door het aanbrengen van een reliëfsculptuur op het schepraam. De techniek zou in 1848 zijn uitgevonden door de Engelsman William Henry Smith. Het licht- en schaduw watermerk resulteert in fijnere details dan bij een gewoon draadwatermerk. Dit type watermerk wordt vaak bij papiergeld toegepast om vervalsing te bemoeilijken.
