What is a Silver Gelatin Fiber Print?

The silver gelatin print has been the most common method used to produce B&W photographs since the late 1890’s. The baryta paper used is processed in traditional B&W chemicals to produce the only truly neutral toned black and white print, which is a stable silver gelatin print.

Today the silver gelatin print is considered the gold standard when it comes to Black and White prints as this process is becoming a rarity in our day and age. Majority of the current labs are fully digital and are no longer equipped for wet process printing.

The Silver Gelatin Paper

Ilford Multigrade fibre base is a baryta coated premium quality, variable contrast, black and white photographic paper. It is designed for creative printers wanting neutral image tone, great clarity and a good response to toners such as a selenium toner for optimal archival permanence. 

Presentation & Quality 

  The silver gelatin fibre base paper curls when drying. It also expands and contracts extensively through its’ lifespan. For this reason, over half a century the dry mounting process with a 100% acid free cotton rag tissue onto museum grade matboards has been the preferred choice for the final representation. These high quality matboards are made of cotton and still to this day remain the preferred choice for many museums and fine art photographers. This method is not only a time-honoured tradition, but also provides the comfort and assurance that the matted artwork will be preserved for future generations. It is highly recommended to protect the silver gelatin print with a UV conservational glazing.
