Triumph of the Egg |
Carbon, gold and silver plates |
Arabic gum bichromates |
Gelatin, potash, mercury |
Insatiable, bold technology |
The bete noire aristotype |
Albumen paper, platinotype |
Autochrome and chromium |
Photogravure, palladium |
Edison, Willis, Nicholl, Swan |
Whose gnosis graced the grand salons |
Talbot, Vogel, Lippmann, Kutz |
De Manche, Lumiere in brave pursuit |
Consumed, possessed of bright ambition |
We bless you late with recognition |
And mourn the passing of your art |
And science, driven from the heart |
