Rediscovering colour photography by direct trichromy
Well, your post said "looks like the technique that russian
guy developed..." Course I was already very familiar with Gorskii and had high appreciation of his work! But in fact James Clerk Maxwell developed tricolor photography based on Thomas Young's [very] early theories. Cheers...

In any case I was required in college to produce a tricolor separation image using three b&w separation exposures. The color is unmatched IMO. However, tricolor photography was first developed by James Clerk Maxwell in 1861, not Tauleigne or Gorskii, based on a early 1800s theory by Thomas Young (who also produce the first ever nonextant photograph in 1802)as well as Herman Helmholtz, that all colors could be reproduced using additive primary RGB or complimentary subtractive colors (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan.) In 1861, Maxwell produced the first ever color separation color image using three projected lantern slides called Tartan Ribbon (a color separation image of a ribbon.) Perhaps I wasn't clear. I make no claim the Russian guy invented color photography, only that the images referred to in the original post reminded me of the images he produced. |
