What is a silver print photo?
Silver print photo is a photo produced on the most common form of photographic paper. Silver bromide is photosensitive and due to its light sensitivity, silver bromide creates a photographic emulsion. Silver print or gelatin silver print is made with silver halides suspended in a layer of gelatin on fiber-based paper. Find a wide collection of antique and vintage photographs on 1stDibs today.
