I was apprenticed within this process in England as a retoucher/color corrector, we produced many high quality specialised prints in up to 14 or more colors for places like the Audobon society, British museum and the like. There was and still is nothing like it in the world today for detailed quality, and I was pleased to find this 'craft' being practiced at Benrido.

This is an excellent video, clearly showing the process. It could be improved by English subtitles explaining what materials are being used. There is not much information available about collotypes. Any addition would be appreciated. Again, good show!

It may appear "poorly rendered" to you because we've become so used to the high contrast images of straight photography -- deep blacks and bright whites. The pictorialists kept tonal values in the middle, and avoided the extremes. It's just a different way of rendering an image.

So wonderful to watch. It is a dying art, unfortunately. I used to operate a large gallery camera light the one at the start.

A lot of time and expense on a poorly rendered image. Come on guys be a little more creative. The depiction of the process is fine but the image is terrible. Why did you waste so much time and effort.
