A chine is a steep sided river valley where the river flows through coastal cliffs to the sea. Typically these are soft eroding cliffs such as sandstone or clays.

It is west of the village of Totland . It is a steep coastal gully, which is overgrown with vegetation. The water that used to flow down the slope has been redirected through a pipe which takes it to beach level to reduce its effect on erosion to the cliff. A set of steps have been constructed down the chine to provide access from Totland to the beach of Totland Bay . The Chine pipe drains water from the northern slopes of Tennyson Down . The Isle of Wight Coastal Path passes up the steps of the chine. At the bottom of the chine is the old Totland lifeboat house.

The main ravine has the brook running through it for all but the driest parts of the summer. The smaller more westerly ravine is eroded when the brook overflows during flash flooding and the excess water finds a second route to the cliff edge.

One purpose is to allow the printmaker to print on a much more delicate surface, such as Japanese paper or linen , which pulls finer details off the plate. Another purpose is to provide a background colour behind the image that is different from the surrounding backing sheet. The final image will depend on the design and ink color of the printed image, the color and opacity of the paper to which the image is directly printed plus any inclusions such as petals or fibers in that paper , and the color of the backing sheet. In the typical direct print method, the plate is inked, the thin paper dampened is placed on the inked plate and trimmed to size, paste is applied to the thin paper, and the ensemble plate plus thin paper with paste is placed on a dampened backing sheet. Then, this is run through a printing press.
