Laure Albin-Guillot frequently utilized the Fresson technique in her work, particularly for her floral and nature images. Developed by Théodore-Henri Fresson, the Fresson technique involves printing photographs using carbon pigment, resulting in rich blacks and subtle tones. This method endowed Albin-Guillot's photographs with a velvety surface and grainy texture, evoking the fine pictorialist quality characteristic of her compositions. – In very good condition.
