Description from the seller

Self portrait by Ros Khavro
Unique Ambrotype* glass plate on graphite plywood. The graphite drawing is specially glued to the plywood and then the Ambrotype is placed.
Very unique and unrepeatable, rarity for collectors.

Signed by the artist on the verso.
Edition: 1/1
Ros Khavro, 2020

DIMENSIONS
Ambrotype size: 14 x 7 cm (glass: 2 mm)
With wooden stand: 34.5 x 25 cm
Plywood thickness: 2cm

Technique - Ambrotype
In short, ambrotype is an early form of photography where a photograph is created by placing a glass negative on a dark background. Introduced in the 1850s, it is commonly called a 'collodion positive' because a positive image is produced on glass using a variation of the collodion process on a wet plate. This method requires the use of silver and collodion to capture the image, and the photograph created with it is everlasting.
