photoglyphic engraving (process) (intaglio photomechanical processes, photomechanical processes, ... Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Process for producing a photographic printing plate, using a particular method developed by William Henry Fox Talbot. This process for producing a printing plate from a photograph was patented in 1858. After coating a copper plate with bichromated gelatin, Talbot exposed the plate to light under a positive transparency. It was then dusted with powdered resin and heated evenly to distribute the resinous particles. The plate was then etched in an acid solution that dissolved the gelatin and etched those same areas. After cleaning, the plate was inked, wiped, and printed on paper. He coined the term photoglyph from the Greek for "carved light."

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Dit verbeterde proces van William Henry Fox Talbot voor het produceren van een drukplaat van een foto werd in 1858 gepatenteerd. Na het instrijken van een koperen plaat met bichromaat stelde Talbot de plaat bloot aan licht onder een positieve transparant. Vervolgens werd de plaat bedekt met hars in poedervorm en gelijkmatig verwarmd om de harsachtige deeltjes te verdelen. De plaat werd daarna geëtst in een zuuroplossing die de gel oploste en diezelfde gebieden etste. Na het reinigen werd de plaat geïnkt, afgeveegd en afgedrukt op papier. Hij leidde de term photoglyph af van het Griekse woord voor 'gekerfd licht'.
