A static or moving image created by mirror-reversing an original over a horizontal axis is referred to more formally as a flipped image or reversed image (a flopped image is mirrored across the vertical axis). Unless the artist specifically makes the printing plate into a mirror image of his subject, the finished print will be a mirror image of it in a print that copies another image, a real scene, or an object. This is because many printmaking techniques result in images where the printed copy is reversed from the image made on the printing plate. When creating printing plates, many printmakers acquired the ability to reverse images; nonetheless, a lot of prints, especially early ones, feature images that are reversed.
