The Scribe was a craftsman, and sure, art could play a part. But in all printing, it's always been a craft. The primary effort is to reproduce faithfully and art has nothing to do with that.

Don't tell printers that printing isn't a craft. And I'm proud to learn the old craft. I've inked up all sorts of stuff.
