Proof Prints |
The Process Muybridge contact-printed his negatives (A) as cyanotypes, the working proofs (B1). |

Using these cyanotypes as his guide, he enlarged each negative onto a separate piece of glass (B2) and assembled these positives into large glass plate composites (C). From these composites, the Photogravure Company, New York, produced a gelatin negative (D). The final print, called a collotype (E), was printed in ink from a plate prepared from this negative. |
