FINE PHOTO GALLERIES is pleased to offer an authentic (NOT a modern reprint) 1962 glossy Kromekote Photo Engraving (fine offset lithography) created from the original transparency by the renowned American photographer Eliot Porter. Outstanding print quality and extraordinary detail make this vintage "Kromekote" print look very close to Porter's original dye-transfer color prints - the closest we've seen in a photo-mechanical print - only under magnification does the high quality photo-mechanical process become evident. Kromekote is a special triple coated substrate designed to emulate glossy photo-chemical prints. First introduced in the 1930's, Kromekote was and is an expensive and exclusive print surface typically reserved for projects calling for the very highest in print quality and detail. This print was pressed with extremely high quality offset, the likes of which are rarely seen in offset lithography. Professionally dry mounted with archival materials by Fine Photo Galleries, this stunning image is ready for a standard 16 x 20 inch frame. It is a striking image which will frame and display beautifully.

The Watermark Word "Finephoto" in the above scan does not appear on the actual print.

ABOUT ELIOT PORTER:  American photographer Eliot Porter is best known for his color photographs of nature and natural scenes. A strong proponent of nature conservation, Porter explored new methods of presenting the natural world through color photography during a time when most serious art photographers were working in black & white. His artistic and technical contributions to bird and landscape photography transformed those genres. Eliot Porter's work has been exhibited internationally, and is held in important collections throughout the world.

Our scans simply cannot do justice to the detail and beauty of the actual print. High quality Kromekote prints are difficult to scan accurately - scanners have trouble with the ultra fine screen pattern and glossy surface, therefor diagonal or horizontal "band lines" will appear occasionally within the scans - these digital "noise lines" are not in the actual print itself.

This vintage photo engraving is guaranteed to be authentic and comes with a hand signed CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA) with unique individual registered serial number from the Finephoto Vintage Archive & Database. Under magnification this plate shows a tight "honeycomb" cell structure, uniform pressing of ink and a wide range of tone - all indicative of a high quality photo engraving.
