For #WorldCyanotypeDay#histsci She made photograms with algae specimen placed directly on paper treated with photochemicals in 🧵1/n

My portrait of Anna Atkins combines a linocut print illustrating her (a Victorian woman in a dress with lace collar in silver ink on white) with a background of a cyanotype with two white fern leaves silhouettes on a Prussian blue.

Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions in October 1843, and two further volumes in the next decade. She collaborated with Anne Dixon (1799–1864) to produce further books of cyanotypes on ferns and flowering plants and also published other non-scientific or photographic books. 🧵2/3

Are you going to publish all your portraits together in a book? (Or perhaps you have already?) I love all of your prints and I also really like all the information you write alongside - it just struck me how nice they would be published altogether 😊
