This image, also an Stone Lithograph called Civilization Viet Nam. It is typical of the works in that period. This print is a "Unique."

Unique: A "Unique" print is one whose design is created on a single matrix using a variety of printmaking techniques in which the artist has interrupted the uniformity by playing with the process, for example: changing the ink color, consistency, stippling, drawing into the wet ink, double striking, lifting ink with a patterned fabric, and any other manner of altering the impression. The print may also be rendered "Unique" by re-working the print after the printing process. for example: painting into a print.
