Making a colour carbon print of Yevonde's self-portrait | Behind the Scenes at NPG

How exactly did we bring Yevonde's work to life for our 2023 exhibition? Watch artist Dr Katayoun Dowlatshahi make a colour carbon print of photographer Yevonde's 1937 self-portrait. This film shows Katayoun talking us through the techniques and processes used, and also includes interviews with Curator Clare Freestone and Digitisation Officer Ines Alves. If you saw the Yevonde: Life in Colour exhibition when it was on display, let us know your favourite piece in the comments below!
