Photogravure is an intaglio printmaking or photo-mechanical process whereby a copper plate is grained (adding a pattern to the plate) and then coated with a light-sensitive gelatin tissue which had been exposed to a film positive, and then etched, resulting in a high quality intaglio plate that can reproduce detailed continuous tones of a photograph.
Halftone is the reprographic technique that simulates continuous-tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size or in spacing, thus generating a gradient-like effect.
Offset lithography is a printing process that involves transferring an image to an intermediate surface before printing it onto the final sheet.
Duotone process, is a grayscale image printed with two inks, to create a rich reproduction of an image.

Description & Details
A comparative overview of four notable twentieth-century Hungarian photographers, Andre de Dienes, Andre Steiner, Zoltan Glass and Martin Munkacsi, who each carved distinct paths in photography, yet shared Hungarian roots and a migration narrative common to many Central European artists of their time.
1. Andre de Dienes (1913 - 1985)
Focus: Celebrity and Glamour Photography (Especially Marilyn Monroe)
Style: Romantic, ethereal, emotionally expressive,
Aesthetic: His images are known for their soft, lyrical quality, blending natural light with a sense of intimacy. De Dienes frequently used outdoor settings, favoring sunlit beaches and landscapes that gave his portraits a poetic feel.
2. Andre Steiner (1901 - 1978)
Focus: Modernist, Scientific, and Nude Photography
Style: Abstract, minimalist, technically experimental,
Aesthetic: Strongly influenced by Bauhaus and modernist movements. He experimented with lighting, shadow, and form, using photography almost like a scientific instrument.
3. Zoltan Glass (1903 - 1982)
Focus: Automotive Photography, Fashion, and Press
Style: Dynamic, commercial, sharp and stylish.
Aesthetic: Glass's car photography captured the thrill of speed and modernity, often using dramatic angles and clean compositions. His fashion photography mirrored the polished style of mid-century advertising.
4. Martin Munkacsi (1896 - 1963) is one of the most influential Hungarian photographers of the 20th century, and his legacy overlaps but also surpasses some of his compatriots in terms of long-term impact, especially in fashion and photojournalism.
Legacy: He had a profound influence on fashion photography, transforming it from static studio poses to vibrant, outdoor movement.
