CYANOTYPE PRINTS

The cyanotype print is created through a hand made printing process that was used by photographers in the latter part of the nineteenth century. It is unmistakable because of its wonderful cool blue hues. This is achieved by hand coating a fine art paper with ferric ammonium citrate (iron base metal), and potassium ferro cyanide in a solution. The paper is then exposed in sunlight and dried, after which it is washed in water. The typically wonderful blue print is the result.
