Cyanotype is a photographic printing process that produces a cyan-blue print. The English scientist and astronomer Sir John Herschel discovered the procedure in 1842, and engineers used the process well into the 20th century as a simple and low-cost process to produce copies of drawings, referred to as blueprints. The process uses two chemicals: ammonium iron(III) citrate and potassium ferricyanide. These vintage photos are cyanotypes that were taken by Carl Curman (1833–1913), a physician and a scientist - as well as a prominent amateur photographer. They decumented everyday life in Stockholm and on the west coast in Lysekil with surroundings, where Carl Curman spent most of his days from between the 1860s and 1900.
