about cyanotype
The cyanotype has been around for almost 200 years. With chemically-coated paper, sunlight, and a rinse of water, the process produces prussian-blue images of great accuracy and delicacy. These cyan-blue prints had a practical use well into the 20th century as architectural and engineering blueprints and early versions of the photocopier. But because the process allows for creative manipulation, cyanotypes have always been attractive to artists and photographers. In fact, they lend themselves beautifully to reproducing nature, as evidenced by what is regarded as the first photographically illustrated book, botanist Anna Atkin's book of algae and fern cyanotypes published in 1843.
