Three-Colour Printing with Zeiss-Tessar Lens | Carl Zeiss, Jena
Editorial comment for this plate:
With the plate. (translated)
Our plate shows how far we have come with three-colour photography. The three negatives, taken directly from nature, are by Nikola Perscheid in Berlin, the lens used was the Tessar by Zeiss. The printing plates for the three colours were etched from the three negatives by Perscheid.
The plate is a beautiful piece of work by the firms Schelter and Giesecke, and Hermann Hönnicke, both in Leipzig.
