The plate at each point only sends back to the eye the simple colour imprinted. The other colours are destroyed by interference. The eye thus perceives at each point the constituent colour of the image. — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
[On the Gaussian curve, remarked to Poincaré:] Experimentalists think that it is a mathematical theorem while the mathematicians believe it to be an experimental… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
During exposure, interference takes place between the incident rays and those reflected by the mirror, with the formation of interference fringes half a wavelength… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
The series of photographic operations, developing, washing, final drying, takes about quarter of an hour. — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
In the case of composite colour, an infinity of systems must be obtained for maxima infinitely slight and with an infinity of interval values… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
This result is due to a phenomenon of interference which occurs within the sensitive layer. — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
The problem of direct colour photography has been facing us since the turn of the last century. — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
The plate at each point only sends back to the eye the simple colour imprinted. The other colours are destroyed by interference. The eye… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
When the shot is afterwards subjected to white light, colour appears because of selective reflection. — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
The length of exposure (one minute in sunlight) is still too long for the portrait. It was fifteen minutes when I first began my… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
Most of these pictures, taken while travelling, were developed on the mantelpiece of a hotel room, which proves that the method is easy enough… — Gabriel Lippmann Copy Share Image
