ENSBA – Before treatment – Teared photograph – Surface Sheen

Slight surface sheen of the albuminised salted paper print (front)

For an albuminised salted paper print, albumen is used as an additional binding agent and is mixed with the salt (sodium chloride) bath. As a result, the prints show a slight sheen on both front and back.
