| Summary | "The Art and Practice of Silver Printing" by H. P. Robinson and Capt. Abney is a comprehensive guide on the techniques and principles of photographic printing, likely written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the specifics of silver printing, emphasizing its unique qualities of beauty and the methods to enhance the permanence of the results. It serves as a manual for photographers seeking to master the art, providing detailed instructions on various related processes. At the start of the book, the authors introduce silver printing and its enduring appeal despite the rise of newer photographic methods. They assert the importance of understanding the theoretical foundations of the process, making a case for the beauty of silver prints over other forms of photographic art. The opening chapters outline key preliminary experiments that establish the basis for silver printing and discuss the preparation of albumenized paper, ultimately setting the stage for detailed procedures on sensitizing and printing photographs effectively. The authors advocate for a thoughtful approach to each step, ensuring that readers grasp the significance of theory alongside practical application. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
