Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thorough examination of collotype and photo-lithography, introducing techniques pioneered during the mid to late 19th century. It begins by explaining that bichromated gelatin is sensitive to light, becoming insoluble in water in exposed areas, while unexposed areas remain soluble and can be washed away, creating a printing surface. The author describes the necessary equipment and materials, including printing frames, drying boxes, and specialized rollers. The book also delves into the chemistry of the process, discussing the use of bichromates, sensitizers, and the role of organic substances in increasing sensitivity to light. The author provides detailed instructions on preparing collotype plates, exposing them under negatives, and printing from them, emphasizing the importance of temperature control during drying. The book concludes by highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of using isinglass and gelatine, providing practical guidance for photographers and printers seeking to master these historic printing techniques.
