When Jayne Hinds Bidaut saw her first tintype, she was so struck by its rich creamy tones that she could hardly believe this photographic process had been abandoned. ███ ███ ███ ██ ██████ ███ ██████ ███ ████ █████████ ███ █ ███ ██ ██████████ ███████ ████ ███ █████████████ ███████████ ███ █████ ██████ ██████ ██████ ███ ████ ██ ████ ███ ████████ ██ █████ ████████ ██ █ █████ ██████ █████ ██ ████ ██████ ██ ██ ███ ██ ████ ████████ ███ ██████ ███ ██████████████ ███ ███████ ███ ████████████████ ████████ ███ █████ ██████ █ ██████ ███████ ██ ███ ██████

Technique · Tintype

Old technique of capturing an image on iron. Bidaut trying to revive it.

Technique · Albumen prints and tintypes

Estabrook using these techniques to create fake antiques.

Artistic Trend · Photographers are embracing old techniques

More Techniques · Daguerreotype; egg coated paper; pinhole cameras; mixing emulsions

There's a ton of interest in these old techniques.

Reason · Hands-on and idiosyncratic

This was also why they became obsolete in the first place.

Reason · Idiosyncrasy, unpredictability, and accident

Estabrook values the accidental. It allows the photographs to elicit nostalgia.

Reason · Unique works of art that bear the artist's mark

Techniques allow artists to leave their mark on their work, allow viewers to be intimate with photographs.
