Re: [Leica] Colour photography (was Eggleston)

I think the value of a C print is still limited on the serious market because of
fading. No one beleives they are going to last despite what Kodak might say.
A Dye transfer would have the same value as a black and white because it is archival.
Same as a Ciba. I don't know if the Fuji direct positive color processes goes
for high sums in galleries I would think they would be valued the same as Ciba's
the archival properties are the same if not better. The issue may be Ciba (or
whatever they call it now) is still perceived as being at least as archival as
black and white and so can go for thousands.
These would be the issues serious color art photographers would be facing.
