Paper is coated with a mixture of potassium ferrocyanide and ferric ammonium citrate and then dried. A photographic negative or an object is placed on the paper and exposed to light. The paper is then washed in water to leave a chemical mixture called ferric ferrocyanide or Prussian blue.
When photography appeared shortly before 1840, the metal-plate daguerreotype, invented in France, was first to achieve popularity. But the process simultaneously developed in England for capturing an image on a paper negative—from which many positives could be printed—provided the foundation on which photography would build for the next 150 ...

Jul 14, 2018 · In 1892, C. Vernon Boys (a regular correspondent of Mach’s) gave an illustrated talk at the Edinburgh Meeting of the British Association about his experiments showing a bullet piercing various objects – a sheet of cardboard, a plate of glass – using ‘instantaneous illumination’: a flash of light.

The descriptions above do not indicate the complexity of the chemical processes. Many people with an interest in chemistry struggled with different combinations of chemicals to find practical methods of creating successful images and obtaining a positive image from the negative. In England, the first person to succeed in this whole process was Will...
Others continued to try to find different methods of creating photographs. An important method known as the cyanotype was developed by Herschel, in 1842. The process uses a mixture of two chemicals, ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide. The prints, which are blue in colour, can be fixed by washing in plain water. (There are variants o...
This was apparently invented almost simultaneously by Frederick Scott Archer and Gustave Le Gray. This process used a prepared glass plate which, in the darkroom, would be coated with collodion (a highly flammable solution of nitrocellulose, ether, and alcohol). It was then made light-sensitive with further chemicals and before it could dry, was pl...
Richard Leach Maddox invented the gelatin dry plate silver bromide process. This led to the invention of dry plate photography, which did not require the photographer to develop the plate immediately after exposure. This proved to be a highly successful process, which continued to be used into the 1920s.
In 1885, George Eastman started manufacturing flexible, paper-based photographic film. Although convenient, it produced rather poor results. In 1887 Reverend Hannibal Goodwin filed a patent for celluloid photographic film. The patent was not granted until 1898. In the meantime, George Eastman had already started production of this type of film usin...
Wherever the light struck, the paper darkened, but wherever the plant blocked the light, it remained white. He called his new discovery “the art of photogenic drawing.” As his chemistry improved, Talbot returned to his original idea of photographic images made in a camera.
The calotype negative was made by projecting an image through a lens on to a piece of chemically sensitized paper fixed inside the camera. Here it formed a latent image on the paper, unseen by human eye.
