Eva, Copper Plate Gravure

Last year at this time I took a workshop with Lothar Osterberg and with much help from Lothar and his assistant I made a number of prints from my plate. There was some problem with dust spots in the tissue but time restraints prevented me from doing a remake. The entire process was analogue. I started with an original in camera 8 x 10 negative and made a film positive on line film. The tissue we used was from Bostick and Sullivan.

Really amazing. I'd love to see a regular silver gelatin print of this to appreciate the difference. Either way, this is a beautiful print.
 
Awesome, dreamy quality, Doug!
 
I too have wondered what this image might look like in other media. There is a gum print of this in my gallery. Perhaps one day I'll make a silver gelatin print, or carbon print of this.
