The title links up to the first phase of the Mini Print exhibition held by the New Library of Alexandria, Egypt. The size requirement on the prints was 10cm x10cm maximum. I really liked a few of the artists, some of whom I might add I was not able to find any images for on the internet. Some of my favorites:
Hany Alashkar, Farouk Shehata, Sumi Perera, Alexandru Jakabhazi, Mary Hood, Margarida Holler. Honestly, I actually liked most of them.
God Bless Copper, printing, and all other reproductive processes, which esure that any good thing that exists can never be wiped out. Johann Goethe

Scottish Printmaking Controversy
I found this rather old article. The title leads to it, and if you are ever in Scotland be sure to check out: Glasgow Print Studio, Dundee, Edinburgh Printmakers, or Aberdeen's Peacock Printmakers.

Scottish roots
Due to an unforeseen take over by a dead distant relative by the name of Longshanks, I have decided that I need to get back to my Wallace side.
Robert Colquhoun (1914-1962)
Really liked this guy, it is a lithograph called Absalom's Head. Unfortunately could not find much for his images.
Sir Muirhead Bone
This is a Scottish artist by the name of Muirhead Bone. The top is a lithograph of a shipyard seen from a big crane. To the right is a drypoint of excavations in Manhattan conducted in 1923.
