-The first method of photographic printing that made use of a negative.
-The albumen found in egg whites bonds photographic chemicals to paper.
-Very sensitive process, reacts to temperature change and can mold overtime. Start printing negatives onto glass for a far less grainy result.
-Duplicable.
1847: first Albumen process published in France
1850: Later evolved into wet-collodion process which was faster and more sensitive, published by Frederick Scott Archer |

German philosopher, essayist, literary critic who wrote that essay we read for class.
Discusses photography as a democratic medium bc anyone can do it (unlike drawing, painting, and sculpting); thoroughly undermines the definition of art forever --- A reproduced image doesn’t have the same essence or aura that the original artwork had/has --- Mass production of photography? --- The more rare a work of art is = The more value it holds.
PHOTOGRAPHY AS TRUTH
Photo: captures, records, documents moments.
Traditional Art: comes from perspective; isn’t always accurate or true. |

| In this technique, a sheet of paper coated with silver chloride was exposed to light in a camera obscura; those areas hit by light became dark in tone, yielding a negative image. The revolutionary aspect of the process lay in Talbot's discovery of a chemical ( gallic acid) that could be used to "develop" the image on the paper --- Introduced to the public AFTER Daguerreotypes --- He charged people to share the process with them whereas Daguerre’s was offered freely to any person; thus Talbotypes weren’t very successful (financially) |
