Albumen Prints
Period
of Use: 1850
- ca. 1890
The
Albumen print was the most common photographic print used in the nineteenth
century, and represents 80% of all surviving 19th century photographs.
Albumen prints can vary in color from purple to chocolate brown.
They fade to yellow, and the highlights are often yellow. Because
the paper was extremely thin, albumen prints were almost always placed
on a thick mount. Unmounted prints would curl, crack and/or tear
easily.
