Hi Christina,

Just few words about gum "a la berger". In fact the method consist of
coating a paper with a light pigmented gum and bichromat and expose. Then
instead of developing, Berger add a second layer with more pigment , and
expose again. And so on. He did it about 3 to 5 times for a print and to
finish he develop all this layer of gum in one time.

SO the print can be easiliy registred as there is no water bath between each
coating , and it give a full tone print .

Sure it look a little bit staright for gum printing but it give quite nice
result.

Amicalement
