But it is not always necessary to use a dark coloredfglue layer although in most cases such a dark Ycolored-glue layer is applied. nFor cer*-V tain purposes, another tone may be employed and even a completely plain or colorless layer of glue.
Contrary to other processes in which the initial silver image is brought into contact with the already colored layers of colloid, the present process is carried out in a separate manner i. e., at first the pigment is applied and then the layer of glufe, whereupon both layers are united.
This is the essential feature of the process. It is Vpresumed that, the further treatment is already known.
Thereupon follows the bleaching and tanning of the silver image and therewith the tanning of the colored layers of gelatine lying above it and the removal of the untanned parts in a bath of Warm water. There remains then a colored image of gelatine as shown in Figure 2. The delicate graduations are reproduced by light co1- ors, as in the example by red, the middle densities by red and a small amount of black, and the shadings by a higher amount of black but in which the red ground shines through.
In this way it isV possible to produce a multicolored image i. e., an image in which the colors appear as in nature. When, for instance in a landscape, the sky is to be reproduced in a blue color, the woods and meadows in a green color etc., water colors are Vnot suitable for this purpose. t is true, they already contain the necessary colloid, glue or albumin, but it is not possible to apply the colorsin a completely equal manner one with the other. carried out as inthe present process i. e., when at rst,the coloring is effected by means of pastel colors or with the pastel crayon and only when the colloid is added, as above described,
