We have prepared a daguerreotype workshop given by Joaquín Paredes in our studio in Cáceres.

During this workshop, we will learn all the necessary skills for making Becquerel daguerreotype plates (without mercury).

We will start from scratch: We will leark how to polish and prepare the copper and brass plates. How to silver-plate our own plates. We will sensitize, develop, fix and guild the daguerrotypes. And we will finally learn howo to case and preserve the plates.

Gelatin-Bromide is a photographic process created in 1871 by Richard Leach Maddox and improved in 1873 by J. Johnson who introduced the washing of the emulsion and later by the work of Charles Harper Bennett who perfected heat maturation to increase sensitivity. By the late 1970s and early 1980s, dry gelatine plate had almost completely displaced wet collodion, thus solving most of the disadvantages of this process.

We'll deal with topics like:

• History of the process
• Preparation and characteristics of gelatino-bromide emulsions
• Washing
• Maturation
• Developing the negatives
• We will make some copies of the plates on baryta paper.
