Answer:

B. linocut

Step-by-step explanation:

Linocut is a recent artistic technique being referred to as Claude Flighit (1920) as its precursor. In 1958 Picasso popularized linocut, creating a major series, and in 1965 Michael Rothenstein developed a set of processes extending the means and qualities of this technique.

Linocut as relief printing takes advantage of the surface feature of the linoleum sheet. This soft material is made from cork powder, agglutinated with flaxseed oil and pressed onto a burlap cloth. It is easily scratched and dug with the use of gouges to make the desired matrix / design.
