Heavily Scratched Lithography Stone Shows Wear and History

A close-up, black and white, vertical studio shot captures a heavily scratched and worn lithography stone, part of David Christensen's 'Plattenkalk' series, in 2026. The stone, likely limestone, exhibits numerous fine scratches, deeper gouges, and some areas of white residue or material transfer across its surface. A significant chip or break is visible along the upper left edge, revealing a layered or fractured interior. The stone stands upright, with its rounded bottom edge resting on a lighter, textured surface, against a dark, undefined background. The image emphasizes the material's texture and the marks of its use.
