Kyoto’s Benrido Releases Leiter Collotype Portfolio
Featuring eight never-before-printed color images, the portfolio Saul Leiter: 1950s New York is now available from the Benrido Collotype Atelier in Kyoto, Japan. Benrido is one of the last remaining practitioners of the collotype process, which originated in the mid-1800s in France and produces prints using glass-plate negatives.
1950s New York is printed on Torinoko paper, with an image size of 30×20 centimeters (paper size: 42×30 cm.). The edition is limited to 50 copies.
