Is a lithograph a medium

Answer 1

Lithograph is a type of print, not a medium. Printing is a medium, painting is a medium, lithography is a medium, but a lithograph is a product, like A painting is a product. Lithos are usually drawn with grease pencils of some sort in a mirror image of the subject you want on a smooth stone or metal plate, then water-based inks are applied, one color to each pass of the print.

Answer 2

Stright from Wikipedia: Lithography is a method for printing using a plate or stone with a completely smooth surface. Most books, indeed all types of high-volume text, are now printed using offset lithography, the most common form of printing production. By contrast with intaglio printing which uses a plate that has been engraved (engraving), etched (etching) or stippled (mezzotint) to produce cavities to contain the printing ink, lithography simply uses oil or fat and gum arabic to divide the smooth surface into hydrophobic regions which accept the ink, and hydrophilic regions which reject it and become the background. Invented by Bavarian author Alois Senefelder in 1796,[1][2] it can be used to print text or artwork onto paper or another suitable material. The word "lithography" also refers to photolithography, a microfabrication technique used to make integrated circuits and microelectromechanical systems, although those techniques have more in common with etching than with lithography
