Abstract

Abstract : Louis Ducos du Hauron (1837–1920), photographed here by L. Lumière (© BNF), was one of the pioneers of color photography. Having patented his first three‐color printing process in 1869, he tirelessly sought to improve his processes. In their Communication onpage 7364 ff., M. Cotte and co‐workers focus on how he printed positives through an extended bibliographic review and the synchrotron‐based microanalysis of fragments from three of his photographs.
