Description: Very Beautiful Antique 5x7" Autochrome& No. 4 DIASCOPE VIEWER Made in FrancebyL.A. DUBURNET I FOUND THIS GREAT INFORMATION ONLINE:Who invented the autochrome? The autochrome process, also known as the Autochrome Lumière, was invented in France by brothers Auguste and Louis Lumière. The Lumière brothers presented their research into colour photography to the Académie des Sciences in 1904. The commercial manufacture of autochrome plates began in 1907, and the first public demonstration of the autochrome process took place on 10 June 1907, at the offices of the French newspaper L‘Illustration. How do autochromes work? Autochrome plates are covered in microscopic red, green and blue coloured potato starch grains (about four million per square inch). When the photograph is taken, light passes through these colour filters to the photographic emulsion. The plate is processed to produce a positive transparency. Light, passing through the coloured starch grains, combines to recreate a full colour image of the original subject. CONDITION: Please See All Photographs Closely Before Bidding to Determine Cosmetic Condition. FYI: See the last photo for damage on the mirror.
