The spine is bound in paper with colours printed by the silkscreen process. The variation in colour on the spine is achieved by the mixing of three different inks laid out on the silkscreen. The technique of manual silk screen printing is now slowly getting extinct because its a labour-intensive art form. With the advent of machine printing, it has become rare and expensive. At Anand Prakash, we run a few units of manual silk screen printing and are keeping the art form alive.
