One of a kind original cyanotype.  Cyantoype is an alternative photographic printing process that is used to create blue-tinted prints.  John Herschel created the original process in 1842.  Paper is coated with a solution of Potassium-Ferricyanide and Ferric Ammonium Citrate, which creates a light sensitive surface.  With the help of sunlight the images are developed, creating beautiful blue prints.
