Blue Nude #9 Photograph - Limited Edition of 5

After 40 years of printmaking, I closed my darkroom in 2021. To keep active in traditional photographic process, I am producing limited editions of selected works as cyanotypes. Information regarding the process is readily available but briefly, the process, discovered in 1842, involves coating paper with a combination of chemicals which when combined produce a light sensitive emulsion. When the emulsion has dried, a negative is contacted printed to the paper and exposed to an ultraviolet light source such as the sun. When exposure is complete, the print is washed in water to finish the process. The resulting archival image dries to beautiful shades blue. Blue Nude #9 is number 1 of a limited edition of 5, hand coated and printed by the artist to archival standards on Arches Aquarelle paper. The image is 6x9 inches on 9x12 paper, signed and numbered on reverse. Note that although produced as a limited edition of 5, due to the handmade nature of the process, each print is unique and can be considered a one of a kind piece.
