2 Component Set for Photographic blueprints on paper and fabric Cyanotype is the "original" sun-printing process, one of the earliest photographic techniques. Discovered in 1842 and distinctive for producing rich, Prussian blue monochromatic prints, Cyanotype was popular well into the 20th century as an inexpensive method for reproducing photographs, documents, maps and plans (hence the enduring architectural term "blueprint") and famously, for making impressions of biological specimens in the field ("photograms"). Harness the power of the sun to make detailed prints from virtually any object that casts a shadow: tools, toys, plants, leaves, stones, sand, string, lace, etc. Simply place the object on the sensitized surface and expose to sunlight (UV). Use a digitally-printed photographic negative (an inverted black and white photo inkjet-printed onto a transparency*) instead of an object to create full-resolution photographs on paper or fabric. Great for photographers, mixed media artists, printmakers, quilters, kids and more, the cyanotype process is easy, forgiving, quick, magical and fun. Capture the nuance of every shadow—a fun group activity for any age! • Historic sun-printing process — Based on an 1842 photographic technique that produces stunning, rich Prussian blue prints on paper or fabric using only sunlight.• Endlessly creative — Print with any shadow-casting object, botanical, or digitally-printed transparency to create photograms, blueprints, and full-resolution photographs.• Great value — Each 2-component set makes approximately 65 prints on paper or 50 prints on fabric at 8" x 10". This set contains enough chemistry to make approximately sixty-five 8" x 10" prints on paper or fifty 8" x 10" prints on fabric.
