Description
The Divers Art...Self-Portrait
The title was a simple idea for two reasons...one, the googles...two, the divers arts [De diversis atibus-The Various Arts] was the crafts [stain-glass/metal-working/paints] used by the 12th century artisans.
It truly is amazing that this film was still...viable...after all these years. I guess good archival storage has a lot to do with the image quality of many Polaroid films...a decade plus down the road.
The film did suffered from low contrast/reagent smears/yellow-red fog in the dark densities.
How stable of an image is it really ...is anybody's guess.
