There is renewed interest among art photographers in a number of
historic printing techniques because of the remarkable effects they
produce. The reader will discover how to create beautifully tinted
mono- and polychromatic gum and oil images using the author's
version of this 19th century technique. Step-by-step illustrated
instructions with directions for further experimentation provide a
perfect source for learning this new, yet old, printing
technique.Gumoil printing involves contact-printing a positive
transparency onto gum-coated paper. Oil paint is then applied and
rubbed into nongummed areas of the print. With bleach etching,
mono- and polychromatic variations are possible. A chapter on
digital printing combines the new and the historic, making this
technique even more accessible for the art photographer.
