lithographer

/lɪθˈɑɡɹəfɚ/ noun

A person who makes lithographs, who does lithography.

Word Origin Lithographer comes from Greek lithos 'stone' and graphein 'to write' — literally 'stone writer.' Lithography was invented as a method of printing from a stone surface. The same lithos gives us monolith (single stone), megalith (big stone), and Neolithic (new stone age). Graphein gives us photograph (light writing), autograph (self writing), and biography (life writing).

noun A person who makes lithographs, who does lithography. countable
