Read the process guideThe four-color Aquaprint rebuilds the image by superimposing four CMYK pigment layers, in direct lineage with the gum bichromate prints of Robert Demachy and Constant Puyo at the turn of the twentieth century. Each layer, cyan, magenta, yellow, black, is exposed 2 to 5 minutes, then cleared in 40 °C warm water that selectively dissolves the unexposed gum. The result marries the texture of cotton paper with soft, slightly faded colors typical of Pictorialist photography. Unlike the Sanguine and Monochrome variants, printed from a single separation negative, this kit handles precise registration of four successive layers and demands absolute geometric rigor at each application, layer after layer.
The VP reformulation completely removes potassium dichromate, a core component of historical gum printing, in favor of a pre-sensitized gum and CMYK powder pigments dosed via 1.25 to 15 mL measuring spoons. Application combines brush for texture and foam roller for uniformity, followed by development in diluted VP N°03 developer then clearing at 40 °C. The monochrome variants in the VP catalog require only one to three layers. Read the safety information for each product before preparing the colour passes.
