Answer to Question 1

D
Aquatint is used to create tonal variations in the image. In her work, Woman Bathing, Mary Cassatt printed the colors in aquatint, which allowed for areas of unmodulated, translucent color.

Answer to Question 2

C
Linocuts identify with relief prints in that the surface of the plate carries the ink. Recall that intaglio is the reverse of relief, in that the areas meant to print are below the surface of the printing plate.
