Résumé

Platinum and Palladium. Printing, Second Edition is the only comprehensive work on platinum and palladium printing. This eagerly anticipated second edition covers the three major new innovations in platinum and palladium printing:

Sodium chloroplatinate (Na2) contrast control agent

Procedures to acidify many fine papers previously unsuitable for platinum printing

Computerized enlargement of negatives

Platinum and palladium printing is one of the easiest of the non-silver processes to learn. This guide offers a number of variations, which the photographer can closely control. Photographers interested in learning, or improving upon this process, will find this book an indispensable resource and reference guide. This is an absolute must-have for professional photographers and printmakers.

Inside you will find:

The three basic phases of printing: sensitometry, chemistry, and mechanics
Practical information based on the making of over 3,000 platinum and palladium prints, covering everything from making your first print, to the most advanced techniques to challenge experienced printers
Over 50 duotones of the author's platinum and palladium prints and those of five contributors

Also included for the first time are contributions written by recognized authorities in their fields:
