And I thought the early color work by Lumiere was beautiful! I downloaded many of these remarkable photographs to print enlargements. Who knows what other great rediscoveries await us? Bless our Library of Congress for purchasing these and other archival works and making them available to all! Maybe someone will dig up a viewing/projection rig and erotic images the Queen of Sheba employed to entice King Solomon into fathering an heir to her domain?  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 11-26-2001 02:52 PM                        Excellent exhibit! I assume those glass plate negatives had been pan (panchromatic) sensitized to capture color images using the additive filters. Best early color I've seen. ------------------ John P.
