This is an exclusive hand painted limited edition cyanotype. This cyanotype shows a desert palm tree located in the majestic mediterranean city of cairo, egypt. Details: + title: cairo citadel palm + year: 2021 + edition size: 50 + stamped and certificate of authenticity provided + measurements : 70x100 cm (28x 40 in.), a standard frame size + all cyanotype prints are made on high-quality italian watercolor paper what is a cyanotype? the cyanotype (a.k.a. Sun-print) process is one of the oldest in the history of photographs, dating back to the 1840's. Cyanotypes were then made famous by anna atkins, considered the first female photographer. Inspired by nature, we feel the need to look back at a craft that is handmade, analogue, and using an all-natural light source: the sun. Our cyanotypes are made by coating high-quality italian watercolor paper with a light-sensitive emulsion. We then expose it in direct sunlight for several minutes using a photo negative to get the best image quality. Finally, the print is washed and fixed with water to stop the reaction and prevent fading. What you get is an amazing, royal blue image, with absolutely no ink involved. And since each print is handmade, tones will give gorgeous, subtle variations. The beauty of cyanotypes is that each print is absolutely unique. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution less
