Anna Atkins Cyanotypes reprints Anna Atkins’s pioneering cyanotype albums at substantial scale, bringing together more than 550 impressions and contextual essays on the scientific and photographic importance of her work.

The delicacy of the specimens gives these blue-and-white images a quiet presence, while their scientific purpose connects photography with the careful observation of plants. This larger, slipcased edition suits readers who want to study the images as well as their place in photographic history.

“What draws me to this edition is the room given to the cyanotypes: the fine edges of a specimen and the depth of the blue deserve unhurried attention.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

CARE & OWNERSHIP

Keep the volume in its slipcase, away from strong sunlight, heat and damp. Support the book as it leaves the case, without pulling on its spine; lay large volumes flat when upright storage would strain the binding. Handle pages with clean, dry hands and dust the cover and closed page edges with a soft, dry cloth. Keep household cleaners away from the binding and paper.
