How the sun saw it - Privet III

Currently also available for sale with Afterpay on the Bluethumb site.

Cyanotype on Hahnemuhle Platinum Rag 300gsm.

The print is A4 in size - 20.2 x 29 cm. It comes mounted in an acid-free, off-white A3 matboard, ready to frame in a standard A3 frame. Frame is not included. 

It was made by arranging layers of privet leaves between glass sheets on top of paper coated with a photosensitive emulsion. This was then exposed to sunlight before being washed to reveal the final image.

Cyanotypes are archival, meaning they will last for a really long time, but best displayed out of direct sunlight. If they do begin to fade over the years, you can place them in the dark for a week or two and, like magic, they will regain their full colour. In a way they are a living memory of what the sun saw in a given moment in time!
