A method of taking photographic pictures, on paper sensitized with iodide of silver; -- also called Talbotype, from the inventor, Mr. Fox. Talbot.
First practical form of photography on paper, introduced in 1841 as an improvement of Fox Talbot's photogenic drawing and talbotype.
(Talbotype) Photographic print made from a paper negative by the process invented by Henry Fox Talbot in 1840 and used until the early 1850s; the image often lacking in clarity as the paper fibers tended to show through.
Invented in 1841 by William Henry Fox Talbot, this was the first successful negative/positive process, enabling multiple prints to be made. A latent image was produced by exposing paper sensitized with a potassium iodide and silver nitrate solution in a camera and developed in a gallic acid and silver nitrate solution. This paper negative was used to make positive prints through contact printing in daylight onto paper treated with silver nitrate and salt.

Negative-on-paper process devised by W. H. Fox Talbot in 1841.
This was the first viable positive/negative process, invented by W.H. Fox Talbot around 1840. Light sensitive paper was exposed to form a latent image, developed, and fixed. The back of the calotype negative was then waxed to facilitate contact printing. (Jones, 70)
A process for making negatives on paper in which the latent image was made visible by chemical development. The process was disclosed to the public by W H F Talbot on 10 June 1841. The essentials of the process remained at the core of numerous variants introduced over the next twenty-five years. Strictly speaking, the calotype refers to the process for making a camera negative , but is often mistakenly used to identify prints. See Thomas Sutton, Dictionary of Photography, (London: Sampson Low, 1858), pp. 48-54. Exhibits created using this process
Sometimes called the Talbotype. A developed-out process almost always used for negatives. Discovered by WHFT in 1840 and patented and published in 1841. Developed with a solution containing gallic acid, it provided a negative on paper with an exposure time measured in seconds. The prints from these negatives were normally made on WHFT's photogenic drawing paper but were sometimes erroneously called calotypes.
W. H. F. Talbot invented and developed this process in 1840 and patented it in 1841; it was used until circa 1855. The image was produced using fine quality writing paper (which was sensitised by silver nitrate and potassium iodide), and placed with a negative in a printing frame, exposed to sunlight and developed in a solution of gallic acid and silver nitrate. This type of early photograph often faded over time with the result of localised fading and loss of detail and contrast.
The calotype (Talbotype) was patented by William Henry Fox Talbot in 1841 and was used for about a decade until it was gradually superseded by the collodian process on albumen paper. The calotype, a paper negative process, was revolutionary because multiple positives could be made from a single negative. It is distinguished from the Daguerreotype which is a direct process yielding a single positive image.
(from the Greek meaning "beautiful pictures") Invented in 1841, this was the first practical process of photography that allowed for making multiple prints of a given image; paper is sensitized with salt and silver nitrate allowing a negative/positive process.
A print taken from a paper negative on salted paper.
the first successful negative-positive photographic process; it produced an image on paper. Invented by Talbot, it was also called the Talbotype.
Calotypes are an early photographic process introduced in 1841 by William Fox Talbot, using paper coated with silver iodide. The root of the word comes from the Greek Καλο for 'good', and type meaning, 'drawing'.
