Bay Laurel Diptych (Two 40 x 26" unframed original cyanotypes on paper)
(TWO original cyanotypes on paper, 40 x 26 inches each, total of 40 x 52 inches)
UFRAMED.
NOTE: All the Bay Laurel and Night Laurel prints are 4 inches WIDER than the Chinese Elm prints of the same height (40 inches).
Images of the prints here as framed are just to give a sense of how much wall they would cover once framed with a gap between them. The width of each 26" wide print would increase to at least 30 inches once framed, so the span is over 60 inches (5 feet or 180cm) when including a gap between the two panels.
These are two separate cyanotypes (unique monotypes) made using the same tree branches flipped over facing the opposite direction, the result being a symmetrical mirror image.
Every botanical cyanotype I make is unique made using fresh cut plants and trees laid in that exact composition on the hand-coated light-sensitive paper only once then exposed to sunlight. These are branches of a native California Bay Laurel tree which grows all over the hills east of San Francisco.
Hand-printed on heavy 100% cotton Arches watercolor paper.
Deckled edges which look nice if float framed without a mat.
