Abstract:
1. A method of forming an image, comprising the steps of: superposing a heat-sensitive transfer sheet on a heat-sensitive transfer image-receiving sheet; and applying thermal energy in accordance with image signals from a thermal head, wherein the heat-sensitive transfer sheet has a dye transfer barrier layer containing at least one kind of a water-soluble polymer or at least one kind of inorganic fine particles between a support and a dye layer, wherein the heat-sensitive transfer image-receiving sheet has a lenticular lens on a transparent support and at least one receptor layer at the back side of the transparent support, and wherein the heat-sensitive transfer image-receiving sheet contains at least one kind of a latex polymer in said at least one receptor layer and has a subbing layer which contains at least one kind of a resin that is identical with at least one kind of a resin constituting the lenticular lens, at the side of the transparent support, opposite to the side on which the lenticular lens is provided.
