The prints were produced by \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/benrido\"\u003eBenrido\u003c\/a\u003e in Kyoto using collotype, a gelatin-based printing process capable of reproducing subtle tonal transitions without a conventional halftone screen. Benrido describes the images as drawn from previously published photographs, chosen by the artist and reproduced with close attention to tone and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe six prints are supplied loose, housed in a portfolio case with a protective bag, rather than bound as pages. This allows each image to be handled, arranged, or framed individually. The set belongs to Benrido's \u003cstrong\u003eMini Portfolios\u003c\/strong\u003e series, conceived as a way to encounter the publisher's collotype work both in the hand and on display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach sheet measures 203 × 254 mm, printed on Takeo Paper Matt Colour HG; the portfolio case measures 206 × 258 × 8 mm.
