David W. Lewis│Old remnants with Bromoil photographic process 

Reykjavík Museum of Photography

At the turn of the 20th century pictorialism reigned supreme and the bromoil and transfer processes were the most highly acclaimed  means of expression by the leading pictorial photographers in North America and Europe. It was considered the most beautiful form of artistic expression. Today, major galleries and serious art collector’s are quick to acquire vintage and traditional bromoil and transfer prints.   Thus, the Bromoil technique is
one of the oldest photographic methods and probably the rarest.



At the turn of the 20th century pictorialism was considered the most beautiful form of artistic expression.
