介绍（中）	莱茵河的鲁伯特亲王（流亡的波希米亚腓特烈五世之子）是mezzotit最早的实践者之一，也是mezzotint发展的重要贡献者。鲁伯特在1654年遇到了路德维希·冯·西格恩（这项技术的发明者），但直到1657年才尝试自己的mezzotits。第二年，他创作了这幅令人印象深刻的版画。他开始用锯齿边的斧头（现代mezzotint"摇杆"的原型）将盘子弄粗糙，在盘子的左上角形成平行的阴影线，并用轮盘的齿轮（显然连接在一根枢轴杆上）形成男子皮肤的点状纹理。接下来，他用锋利的刮刀切掉金属毛刺，并用光滑的抛光机抛光，以恢复白皮书的亮点。最后，他在年轻人的帽子上加上了蚀刻的线条，形成了羽毛，以及他被切开的丝绸袖子的边缘。有趣的是，在原画（17世纪由乔治·焦尼创作）中，袖子是由链甲制成的。
介绍（英）	Prince Rupert of the Rhine (son of the exiled Frederick V of Bohemia) was one of the earliest practitioners of mezzotint, and a vital contributor to its development. Rupert met Ludwig von Siegen (the technique's inventor) in 1654, but did not attempt his own mezzotints until 1657. He made this impressive print the following year. He began by roughening his plate with a serrated-edged hatcher (a prototype of the modern mezzotint "rocker") to make the parallel shading lines at the upper left of the sheet, and the toothed wheel of a roulette (apparently attached to a pivoted pole) to form the dotlike texture of the man's skin. Next, he sliced away the metal burr with a sharp-edged scraper, and polished it with a smooth-tipped burnisher to retrieve the highlights of the white paper. Finally, he added etched lines to form the feather in the youth's cap, and the edges of his slashed-silk sleeves. Interestingly, in the original painting (attributed to Giorgione in the seventeenth century), the sleeves are made of chain mail.
