Product Description
This is a museum quality, reproduction print on premium paper with archival/UV resistant inks. This custom made, authentic reproduction would make an elegant gift or tasteful addition to the home or office. Detroit Publishing Co. Catalogue J, 1905. Print no. 11029. Views of England HISTORY OF PHOTOCHROM PRINTS The photochrom process was initially developed in Switzerland and was spelled without an "e", so the correct original spelling was actually "photochrom". Once the process was introduced in America, the "e" was added to aid pronunciation. A Photochrom is a color photo lithograph, produced from a black-and-white negative. The final prints were created using different color impressions from multiple lithographic stones. The stones used by the publisher Detroit Photographic Company were imported from Bavaria and coated with a special Syrian 'asphaltum' substance that would be chemically sensitized to light, put in contact with a photographic negative, exposed to the sun for up to several hours, then "developed" in oils of turpentine. A separate stone would be made for each color to be used. A minimum of four stones and as many as fourteen stones might be used for a given image.

Whitby from West Cliff Yorkshire Enlgand October 18, 2008
An authentic reprint of a very well known view of Whitby. The print is subtley reproduced in color from what was originally a very old black and white photo so do not expect the reproduction to be crystal clear however that just adds to the authentic look of an 1890's photo. Looks great all framed up.
