Briefly, a platinum print is a photo print made by painting a platinum-based emulsion on fine art paper and exposing a negative to it. A platinum print will remain unchanged as long as the paper it is printed on exists.
Platinum prints look different than any other photographic print.
Because the liquid platinum emulsion is brushed directly onto the paper and sinks in, rather than being held captive in a thin layer of gelatin on top of the paper, the image itself has physical depth, creating a three-dimensional quality to the print. The finest platinum prints appear to have light emanating from within rather than light reflecting off of them. To read more on platinum prints, visit John Rudiak's website . US Janis Joplin . Because each print is made by hand to exacting standards, delivery time will be quoted at time of purchase.
