“It all started with a trip to Arles. We were invited to a party in the middle of the dusty Camargue. It was a community festival to celebrate the branding of young bulls. The field was mostly full of male horsemen, known as Gardians, except for one 16 year old girl whose confidence and poise shone out and spoke to me. Serenely she held the reigns of four horses in the midst of the busy scene, while the Gardians jumped off to tether and brand the bucking, writhing young animals. Her name was Melodie.

I followed her, we talked and thus began a year during which I photographed her with her young friends — both human and equine — and their beautifully simple life in harmony with the natural world.”

Collotype printing was the state of the art for photographic reproduction at the turn of the twentieth century. However, due to the high level of expertise needed to obtain consistent results, it was quickly replaced by faster, cheaper, more mechanized processes. One of the collotype’s distinguishing characteristics is the ability to display extremely fine tonal gradations and a practically infinite range of values. By approximating the full array of perceptible tones — from deep shadow to brilliant highlight —collotype prints faithfully render photographic images in exquisite detail.

As one of the world’s few remaining producers of collotypes, Benrido offers rare access to this lost craft, providing opportunities for today’s photographers to collaborate with master artisan printers in making singularly beautiful museum-quality prints for exhibition and display.
