Writ

Hello, can someone explain to me the last sentence below? 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.

Well i think that here the word "WRIT" means the documentary or the literature which was written by the author, it states the meaning that whatever the author has written is very very large. Well you can also get online help from ((URL removed by mod. Please don't advertise in your posts) )

"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??
