Carlotta on the Loire

Carlotta on the Loire – One of Sir William’s favourite areas in France complete with his favourite model, Cecilia Green.
From the early years of this century the term collotype was synonymous with Jaffé of Vienna.
This exacting printing process uses first a huge camera to produce a direct negative the size of the required print.
Then as many plates are made as the printer requires to reproduce the subtleties of tint and shading,
found particularly in watercolour painting.
Ten plates or more are not uncommon.
Made of glass, each plate is coated in a film of gelatine, which, when made light sensitive, becomes ‘spongy’ in varying degrees,
thus holding more or less ink and eventually reproducing exactly the tonal quality of the original work.
