Color Photography.

The art OF photosraphing colors
seems TO be progressing In a very en-.
couraring manner The color photo.
graphs OF N. Lippmann, which cx.
cited so much interest a year or 81
ago, have recently been surpassed by
the achievements of NJ. Louis Lu.
m,ere, NJ. Lumiere. whose name in
English means ''light, has succeeded
In preparing gelatinobromide plates
which give, with an exposure Of half
an hour, "a Photographic reproduc.
tion OF the natural colors OF oh. ects.
An exhibition OF his work was
made before the committe OF the
Photo CLUB OF Paris at their June
meeting, NJ. Lippmann being present
aS the presiding ofiicer. Photographs
were shown exhibiting In their nat
ural hues boxes, colured cloths, fans
Japanese screens, flowers and land.
scapcs.
The landscape photographs aroused
the greatest interest The delicacv
OF tint' which they exhibited was
quite astonishing. All the shades
and gradat.ons Of co,or in the grass
and trees, the sky. the fields, and the
houses were reproduced with eNtfaOr-
dinary faithfulneSs and cearness.
The gain in time OF exposure
achieved by NJ Lumiere is In itself
n great advance. Former methods
OF photographing colo have re-
Qu!red exposures OF not less than an
hour and half or two hours: but 10 is
hoped that the thirty minutes re-
quired by NJ. Lumicre's process will
soon be greatly shortened.
The French are particularly inter.
eStcd in the progress which color
photography is making in their coun-
try. They call IL the completion OF
the invention OF Dagucrre. aud afe
eager 10 see IL brought To perfection
10y their compatrlotS. IL does not
matter, however whether u Is a
frenchman, IA German. an English
man Jr an American who shall first
make color photography the common
property at mankind; in any event he
will win the gratitude OF all nations.
