We are very pleased to offer a wide variety of photochroms from the turn of the 19th century that were printed by the Detroit Photographic Company.
Photochroms are produced by a color photo-lithographic process in which a black and white photographic negative is applied to multiple lithograph stones and colors are added, one stone at a time. The Detroit Photographic Company brought the people of the United States the very first color photographs and later extended their business into printed, colored post cards which were very popular at the time and which, to this day, are highly sought after by collectors of ephemera. The Detroit Photographic Company, known as the Detroit Publishing Company beginning in until it liquidated its assets in , brought the photochrom process from Switzerland in Jackson had been a photographer with the U.
Geological Survey in the s, which took him all over the west and cemented his reputation as one of the foremost landscape photographers of his time. During the s Jackson continued to travel extensively, photographing hotels, city views, railroad lines, important buildings, and more. Jackson was taken with the photochrom process because it captured color so naturalistically, and he would devote himself to it in his last years of active photography.
In , the Edison Institute gave all of the negatives and many duplicate photographs to the Colorado Historical Society. The Colorado Historical Society transferred most of the negatives and prints for sites east of the Mississippi as well as others to the United States Library of Congress later that year. The photochroms we are offering are taken by a large format camera and therefore show extraordinary detail.
They are the largest of the photochrom prints published, with the exception of the panoramic views the Detroit Photographic Company produced, and each is approximately 7 x 9 inches. By contrast, their postcards are 3 x 5 inches. Most have the number of the print and subject matter embossed just above the lower edge.
