Frottage: Max Ernst
Frottage to me sounds more like a french cheese than the french meaning for the word of 'rubbing'. The word is used to describe a method of placing paper over a textured object, such as wood or a textured fruit, for example, like a pinapple and then rubbing a pencil or crayon across the surface to create the illusion of the object on to the paper. The technique was developed by Max Ernst in 1925 in a period of time known for the Surrealists.
