About the Item

Dragonfly - Signed limited edition archival pigment print - Edition of 8 Photography and Bichromate print : 2016 Pigment print : 2020 Several negatives was used to create a handmade print with a 19th. century technique involving light sensitive watercolor and gum arabic. This is a long process using several layers of color in order to build up the image. Due to the complexity of accurately registering each layer, the print created is unique. This one-off print was photographed then printed on thick textured photographic paper (320 gsm, Acid-free, Museum quality paper for highest age resistance ). Here is this signed giclé print with an exceptional resolutions. This craft technique using pigments in successive layers means that the final photographic print has a particular depth of details. Numbered by artist with certificate of authenticity, unframed Edition : 1/8 Please note. There are two sizes of this print; each is an edition of eight (8) making the total that can be printed as sixteen (16). This will include any custom sizes requested Archival pigment print available sizes ( Image size) : 55 x 75 cm / 21,65 x 29,53 in - edition of 8 100 x 136 cm / 39,37 x 53,54 in - edition of 8 Ian Sanderson (born 1951 Scotland, died 2020 Spain) was a Scottish photographer. Ian produced images over a 35 year career. For most he worked as both a Commercial and Fine Art photographer; during his last years concentrated on his personal archive. Ian and his partner have worked for many years with alternative printing techniques, Platinum Palladium, Silver Gelatin, Lith or Gum Bichromate. This culminated in a large retrospective exhibition in Barcelona which was sponsored by the Nando and Elsa Peretti Foundation. Platinum Palladium printing is a traditional photographic technique which precedes silver gelatin prints technique. Many photographers have worked with it in the past as Irvin Penn, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, Robert Mapplethorpe, Sebastiao Salgado o Ormond Gigli with its Platinum with gold leaf print 'Girls in the Windows'. For this type of print, the original Platinum Palladium technique is more advanced by adding another precious metal that only a handful of artists in the world have the expertise to practice it today. Ian Sanderson Studio works with silver or gold leafs depending on the desired rendering. These precious metals bring longevity and rarity to the print but also a tonal range and depth unmatched by digital printers which are valued by collectors. Bichromate prints are more originals by the way that each print is unique Ian Sanderson studio continues to create rare and personalised pieces thanks to the work of Ian's life partner. Please note that prices increase as editions sell. Style : Color photography, 20th. century, Archival print, Fine art, Grainy, Vintage, Aesthetic photo, Large-scale, Timeless, oversize, Animal

He produced images over a 35 year career, and in recent years used archival techniques to produce his prints. For most of his career he worked as both a Commercial and Fine Art photographer, and during his last years concentrated on his personal imagery. Towards the end of his life journey, Ian was reviving with his partner two 19th century printing techniques in their studio, Platinum Palladium and Gum Bichromate ( one-of-a-kind pieces). This culminated in a large retrospective exhibition in Barcelona which was sponsored by the Nando and Elsa Peretti Foundation. The Platinum and Palladium prints are particularly interesting as they printed them onto vellum paper therefore transparent and bonded pure gold or silver to the back of the prints ( every print is therefore a unique and timeless piece of art). They have created rare and personalized pieces with an artisanal technique. Ian Sanderson was one of only a handful of artists worldwide producing this type of work. Nowadays, Ian’s partner continues their work, she’s still creating Platinum Palladium prints but also silver gelatin photographs.
