Context:
Attempts to imitate two-color chalk drawings on colored papers-by printing from two plates in black and white inks on blue paper-were unsuccessful because the lead white ink then available discolored after exposure to light. Bonnet, however, succeeded in developing a stable white ink in 1764 and, to avoid competition, guarded his formula well. Regrettably, he published only about two dozen examples of printing in black and white inks on blue paper between about 1764 and 1774. The brilliant white and rich black provide a startingly effective contrast to the fresh color of the unfaded blue paper.
