For #WorldCyanotypeDay I am sharing my portrait of English botanist & photographer Anna Atkins (1799-1871), née Children who published the first book with photographs. She made photograms with algae specimen placed directly on paper treated with photochemicals in Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions in October 1843, 🧵1/2
