Original cyanotype print executed from a digital negative made in my studio in Auvers sur Oise near Paris (France).
All photographs and prints are made by hand by me, in film and digital very often using medium or large format film cameras. This print is an original chemical transfer on watercolor paper.
This is a unique copy of which each reproduction is different, each Ultraviolet print is made on thick watercolor paper 250 to 300gr. These prints are made either in direct sunlight or under an ultraviolet insolator.
This original print is signed and dated and has undergone a coffee toning to modify the shades of or this warm color in the paper.
Info: Cyanotype is an old monochrome negative photographic process, through which a Prussian blue, cyan blue photographic print is obtained. This technique was developed in 1842 by the English scientist and astronomer John Frederick William Herschel.
I am a professional artist and my workshop is located in Auvers sur Oise, on the path of painters, this city is known for the period of impressionist painters, more particularly by Corot, Daubigny, Manet, Pissaro or Vincent Van Gogh who lived and produced many world famous paintings.
The colors and the shade of blue may be slightly nuanced due to the settings of computer screens.
