Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Woodcut is a relief printing technique where the artist carves an image into the surface of a block of wood, with the printing parts remaining level with the surface while the non-printing parts are removed. The ink is applied to the woodblock's surface and then transferred to paper. This contrasts with intaglio methods like drypoint, etching, and engraving, where ink is applied to the incisions made on a metal plate.
