Table Mountain - Limited Edition #2 of 7 Photograph

Titel: Table mountain massif seen from Bloubergstrand, Western Cape, South Africa, March 2009 Hand coated Platinum Print on super thin Japanese cotton rag paper (Taizan 36g/m2) Custom manufactured Mansonia-wood frame 39x48cm (15,5x19 in) with 3mm Optiwhite anti reflex glas, 4mm neutral white mat Platinum prints are top notch amongst the photographic print techniques. The emulsion used for the photographic process does not “sit” on top of the paper like the gelatin coat in silver gelatin printing, but the platinum soaks into the paper itself, giving the images their unique depth. Platinum prints are famous for their extraordinary range of greyscales, especially in the dark tones. ​ Also, one can choose every fiber-based paper as a base for the platinum “coat”. I chose a 36 gram, handmade Japanese paper called TAIZAN. The structure of the cotton fibers is still visible and this adds to the earthy and archaic feeling of the images from South Africa. This beautiful video about my Belgian platinum printer will give you an idea about how much care is taken to create a platinum print: https://vimeo.com/20321908
