CMYK color model color reproduction and they may be viewed as the inverse of RGB. Cyan absorbs Red, Magenta absorbs Green, and Yellow absorbs Blue (-R,-G,-B). Since RGB and CMYK spaces are both device-dependent spaces, there is no simple or general conversion formula that converts between them. Conversions are generally done through color management systems, using color profiles that describe the spaces being converted. Nevertheless, the conversions cannot be exact, particularly where these spaces have different gamuts. The problem of computing a colorimetric estimate of the color that results from printing various combinations of ink has been addressed by many scientists. A general
Conservation and restoration of photographs Additive Color Model Applied physician James Clerk Maxwell made the first color photo by mixing red, green, and blue light. 1871: Gelatin dry plate Richard L. Maddox discovered that gelatin could be a carrier for silver salts. By 1879, the gelatin dry plate had replaced the collodion wet plate. It was a revolutionary innovation in photography since it needed less light exposure, was usable when dry, meaning photographers no longer needed to pack and carry dangerous liquids, and could be standardized because it could be factory produced. 1873: Platinum Printing (Platinotype) William Willis patented platinum printing in Britain. The process
