EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of historical technology - the Darkroom Photograph Enlarger C014 / 1249. Dating back to the 1970s, this Durst 606 colour and black-and-white enlarger played a pivotal role in the world of photography. Its purpose was to enlarge photographs from negatives, utilizing a fascinating process that involved shining light through the negative and lens. The lens would then project an enlarged version of the image onto photographic paper, which can be seen on the left side of the photograph. Once printed, this photographic paper would undergo development in a tray filled with various photographic chemicals displayed on the right side. To maintain optimal conditions for this intricate procedure, darkrooms were utilized with low lighting levels bathed in red illumination. This reddish hue ensured minimal interference during developing stages while preserving delicate images captured on film. Stepping into this dimly lit room evokes nostalgia for bygone eras when photographers meticulously crafted their art using equipment like this Durst 606 enlarger. It serves as a testament to technological advancements within photography throughout the 20th century. Preserved by Science Photo Library's Victor de Schwangberg, this print not only captures an iconic piece of equipment but also immortalizes an important chapter in our history where chemical processes and artistic vision converged seamlessly within darkroom walls.
