Lithography was invented in 1796 by German playwright Alois Senefelder as a cost-effective way to produce copies of his plays. It involves creating an image on a flat stone or metal plate with a greasy substance, then using water to repel ink from the non-image areas and attract it to the image areas. This image can then be transferred onto paper or other materials.
