Gold in Photography & The Chrysotype Manual are the first published monographs devoted to the role of gold in photographic imaging. They centre on the forgotten chrysotype process invented by Sir John Herschel in 1842, at the dawn of the photographic age.
Chrysotype offers absolutely permanent images in pure nanoparticle gold. Never before has chrysotype taken its rightful place in the repertoire of fine art photographic printing. Sixteen years of research by Mike Ware have yielded a chemically-updated, modern & economic method of chrysotype, offering the image quality of platinotype with a sublime variation in colour only achievable with gold. |
