The frieze of the Palace of the stuccoes, dated between the 5 th and 6 th century BC, was a polychrome Maya relief discovered in the 1907 in Yucatán, Mexico. It was documented in watercolours and hand tinted photographs by Adela Breton. After years o...

Rheological and flow birefringence studies of rod-shaped pigment nanoparticle dispersions (2020)
Journal Article
Salamon, P., Geng, Y., Eremin, A., Stannarius, R., Klein, S., & Börzsönyi, T. (2020). Rheological and flow birefringence studies of rod-shaped pigment nanoparticle dispersions. Journal of Molecular Liquids, 313, Article 113401. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molliq.2020.113401

We study rheological and rheo-optical properties of suspensions of anisometric pigment particles in a non-polar fluid. Different rheological regimes from the dilute regime to an orientationally arrested gel state were characterized and compared with...

The polychromatic Woodburytype: Colour tracking in translucent, patterned gelatin/pigment films (2020)
Journal Article
Leech, D. J., Guy, W., & Klein, S. (2020). The polychromatic Woodburytype: Colour tracking in translucent, patterned gelatin/pigment films. Molecules, 25(11), Article 2468. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules25112468

The Woodburytype is a 19th century photomechanical technique capable of producing high-quality continuous-tone prints. It uses pigment dispersed in gelatin to produce a 2.5D print, in which the effect of varying tone is produced by a variation in the...

Woodburytype: A historical process resurrected by modern methods (2020)
Journal Article
Klein, S., Guy, W., Leech, D., & Argyle, J. (2020). Woodburytype: A historical process resurrected by modern methods. IMPACT Printmaking Journal,

One of the technological achievements of the 19th century was the mass reproduction of photographic images. Woodburytype was the first commercially successful photomechanical continuous tone printing method, of unsurpassed quality until today. Along...

The optical properties of the Woodburytype - An alternative printing technique based on a gelatine/pigment matrix (2020)
Journal Article
Leech, D., Guy, W., & Klein, S. (2020). The optical properties of the Woodburytype - An alternative printing technique based on a gelatine/pigment matrix. Journal of Physics Communications, 4(1), Article 015018. https://doi.org/10.1088/2399-6528/ab6ed4

The Woodburytype is a 19th century photomechanical printing method, producing high-quality continuous-tone images that use a suspension of carbon black in gelatine as a relief print, in which the variation in height of the print produces the grayscal...
