But then you have Cibachrome (Ilfochromes) - which have had that up-market
slightly snobby appeal (but then Dye Transfer prints are even snobbier than
Cibachromes...) it's really a matter of finding something descriptive,
non-deceptive, doesn't tread on too many toes but has a nice marketing ring
to it as well and implies a certain sense of quality "Silver Gelatin" - hmm
silver, precious metal etc

With the technology, papers, inks, longevity data changing every week, it's
all pretty fluid right no. I think Nash Editions in conjunction with a
number of Curators are going for the "Pigmented Print" "Pigmented Colour
Print" route - which isn't too bad, but doesn't quite roll of the tongue
