What does writ mean here?   But soon you notice the concentric lines of giant fingerprints and the tip of a finger or two. You knew it was enlarged, but from something just a few centimeters high? It is the artist’s touch writ very, very large.  Anonymous

Well i got some help from an english training course that provides live support, but as they already have taught me so much so they ask me to find the answer myself and i got this answer, i hope that this is fine.Well you can also get online help from ((URL removed by mod.

	Avangi  +  963792 Fri, 06 Nov 09 10:49 PM "Writ large" is poetic.  I'd say "writ" is an archaic version of the past participle, "written." Your excerpt sounds like a clever mixing of reality and metaphor. "The artist's touch" = a fingerprint??
