description: "Sudek's pigment prints involved...a specially treated carbon impregnated tissue that was placed in contact with an ordinary silver print. During exposure to light the silver-based image was transmitted chemically onto the carbon tissue, creating a pigmented image. Then, while wet, the two pictures were separated, and, finally, the carbon tissue was transferred onto a piece of high-quality paper." This volume documents Sudek's pigment prints of the 1940s and 1950s, including his ''studio pictures,'' landscapes, still lifes, and architectural photography, in beautiful reproductions, along with essays and interviews with Sudek.
