Notes

General Note:
This image is after an ancient Khmer bas relief carving - on the wall of Bayon Temple, Angkor Thom, Siem Reap, Cambodia - of two boars about to be baited into fighting
General Note:
Kimedashi print (Japanese: 決めだし; Khmer: បោះពុម្ព ផ្តល់ជំនួយសង្គ្រោះបន្ទាន់) is a printing technique whereby the paper is sculpted by pushing it down in voids in an engraving; when removed from the mold, the paper is inked on what would have been the depression and now, inverted, is the raised surface. Kimedashi is a type of embossing, or, relief printing. Similar to a charcoal temple rubbing.
