Three-Colour Photography around 1900

loeschen.indd
Three-color photography is the basis for most color photographic technologies nowadays, so why does its multifaceted history remain ignored by historians? This issue of PhotoResearcher explores the various technologies the term “three-color photography” encompasses, investigates their use in different expeditions abroad, and elucidates their role in the visual and discursive constructions of Empire. Thus, it offers readers interpretative and methodological paradigms to complicate three-color photography’s historiographic position.
