COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHY.
Important Discovery by a Swiss.
Geneva, April 2-5. M. Adolphe Gartner, an amateur photographer of Berne, has it is alleged, discovered the secret of colour photography. His process is very simple, and he has obtained some magnificent specimens of his work. He shows his photographs on paper, porcelain and glass the colours being blue, red, brown and dark yellow.
On glass the photographs are veritable pictures, perfectly true tonature in every detail. He has been working at his invention for several years, and by a happy accident discovered the secret, which -consists chiefly in the hath, only a few days ago, The Buad, by far the most serious paper in German Switzerland, devotes a long article -io the discovery and prophesies a new era in photography. Many experts are interested in the discovery and I hear that a famous firm of Paris photographers are sending down a representative to Berne to try and buy the secret from M, Gartner.
