The original chromophotograph has deteriorated, due to yellowing of the paper. This picture is an attempt to reconstruct the original look of chromophotography, using modern photoshop technology. First, both layers were color balanced to remove the yellow cast; then the bottom layer was unsharpened to simulate diffusion by the paper; and finally, the upper layer was made 30% transluscent. The original chromophotography rights has expired (alexander seik died 1905) and i release the additional changes to public domain. Not sure what is the proper licence to chose here (public domain self made or public domain old). Date: Unknown date; Author died 1905..
