Tintype – Stephen Br\u00fbl\u00e9<\/p><\/div>\n

Wet-Plate Photography \u2013 Stephen Br\u00fbl\u00e9
\n<\/strong>The technology of wet-plate photography was invented by Frederick Scott Archer in 1851. It replaced the first commercially \u00a0successful processes, the Daguerreotype and the salt paper negatives. Wet-Pate was used by Mathew Brady<\/a> to record<\/a> the American Civil War<\/a> – a war that prompted the formation of the Dominion of Canada<\/a> in 1867.<\/p>\n

Stephen Br\u00fbl\u00e9<\/a>, a graduate of Ryerson, is a Toronto photographer who works with the century and a half old wet-plate process. Join Stephen on September 19th and discover this remarkable process that once was the mainstay of photographers world-wide. The process was both an improvement over the earlier processes and a complication. Much better resolution than paper negatives, yet able to easily be replicated. Alternatives to prints were Ambrotypes and Tintypes that were made in camera and chemically reversed to make a positive.<\/p>\n

The process was slow enough to require a tripod, even outdoors and complex enough to demand the camera negative remain wet until processed and developed. Sound familiar? Yes, it is embodied in our logo – the wet-plate man.<\/p>\n
