IMHO cyanotypes are much harder than they say. They are supposed to fade
away rapidly with UV light. Well, I wanted to try how fast it was, so I put
one under the summer Spanish sun for a month and a half while keeping a
second in the dark. After the holidays, I compared both: I couldn=B4t find=
any
important difference or fading.
Has anyone of you ever checked this? Did you get the same results?
Best
