AB  - A digital watermark is used to insert an imperceptible signal into data  which may be in the form of images, audio or video. This has applications in a variety of purposes like copyright control, authenticity, captioning etc. As the watermarks are subjected to wide range of applications, each requiring different sets of properties, a variety of important characteristics and properties of watermarks have  been investigated. This study highlights the important properties of watermarks and also gives insight into various trends and approaches prevalent in this area.The study also conducts a   literature survey focusing only on  noteworthy work and  techniques used for images  during preliminary and principal development stage of digital watermarking  by various researchers  with the utility of giving a fundamental understanding of the basic principles of digital watermarking as it has evolved. This may serve as the concrete foundation   and the base for understanding  further advances in this technology in later years.
