Great paper, expecially toned in selenium.m Try it

Lovely stuff, tones well. A more "feminine" character than. say, Ilford
Galerie, but with the right picture it's quite lovely. Think of women's
portraits, snow scenes, flowers.

See the current View Camera for a good article comparing B&W papers. The
author is a combination of Einstein and Hemingway. Awesome guy. Humble, too.

Cough. It was a good article Bruce.

Bergger is very, very similar if not the same as Old Brilliant paper,
back before Calument begain repacking Ilford MG paper.

I don't know if I would classify a paper as female in nature.
But it is fabulous stuff too bad its almost twice the cost of Forte
and its marginally better in terms of tonal reproduction from
my humble tests.
