Sepia (color)
Sepia is a reddish-brown color, named after the rich brown pigment derived from the ink sac of the common cuttlefish ''Sepia''. The word ''sepia'' is the Latinized form of the Greek σηπία, ''sēpía'', cuttlefish. In the visual arts Sepia ink was commonly used for writing in Greco-Roman civilization. It remained in common use as an artist's drawing material until the 19th century. Grisaille is a painting technique developed in the 14th century in which a painting is rendered solely in tones of gray, sepia, or dark green. In the last quarter of the 18th century, Professor Jacob Seydelmann of Dresden developed a process to extract and produce a concentrated form of sepia for use in watercolors and oil paints. Sepia toning is a chemical process used in photography which changes the appearance of black-and-white prints to brown. The color is now often associated with antique photographs. Most photo graphics software programs and many digital cameras include a sepia tone filte ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sepia Tone
In photography, toning is a method of altering the color of black-and-white photographs. In analog photography, it is a chemical process carried out on metal salt-based prints, such as silver prints, iron-based prints (cyanotype or Van Dyke brown), or platinum or palladium prints. This darkroom process cannot be performed with a color photograph. The effects of this process can be emulated with software in digital photography. Sepia is considered a form of black-and-white or monochrome photography. Chemical toning Most toners work by replacing the metallic silver in the emulsion with a silver compound, such as silver sulfide (Ag2S) in the case of sepia toning. The compound may be more stable than metallic silver and may also have a different color or tone. Different toning processes give different colors to the final print. In some cases, the printer may choose to tone some parts of a print more than others. Toner also can increase the range of shades visible in a print wi ...

Sepia (song)
"Kevin Carter" is a song by Manic Street Preachers, released as the third single from their album '' Everything Must Go'' in 1996. The song peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart. Background and composition The subject of the lyric was the 1994 Pulitzer Prize-winning professional photographer Kevin Carter who was awarded for his image '' The Vulture and the Little Girl'', taken in what is now South Sudan. Carter was troubled by the balance of his professional responsibilities with moral considerations, leading to his suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning at the age of 33. The song's unusual feel can be attributed in part to the track being composed in open G tuning (as opposed to standard guitar tuning), which is commonly used in the playing of slide and bottleneck guitars. On the record, however, it is played with a Fender Jazzmaster. The jagged, descending chords of the verses lead into a lush extended middle section, which further points to experimental songwriting wh ...

''Sepia'' was a photojournalistic magazine featuring articles based primarily on achievements of African Americans. The magazine was founded in 1946 as ''Negro Achievements'' by Horace J. Blackwell, an African-American clothing merchant of Fort Worth, Texas. He had already founded ''The World's Messenger'' in 1942. George Levitan, a Jewish American and plumbing merchant in Fort Worth, bought Blackwell's magazines and Good Publishing Company (aka Sepia Publishing) in 1950. He changed the magazine's name gradually; in 1954 he named it ''Sepia,'' and published it until his death in 1976.
