Autochrome

I'm obsessed with the look of autochrome.  For those who don't know (a group I would have been a part of till recently) autochrome is a process for creating color photographs before the advent of color film.  To make the images, people would place a matrix of tiny colored starches onto a plate glass in front of the image.  The result of an autochrome is not only a wonderful color range, but a stippled, impressionist look that brings to mind the paintings of Serrault.  These are a few examples of this gorgeous technique.
