Same conditions as in fig. 3. The limiting zone and the grains in the individual laminae can not be seen. Fig. 5. Section through pure brilliant white. Swollen gelatine, a opaque mirror zone, h the fine stripes lying under the mirror zone. Fig. 6. Section through yellowish white, a mirror zone, c fine stripes, d laminae corre- sponding to the yellow. Figs. 7, 8, and 9. The action of intensifica- tion on the color. Fig. 7 shows the unintensified color, the stripes are too dark in the reproduction. Fig. 8. The same color intensified once in a sublimate bath. Fig. 9. After two intensifications. It will be observed how the scarcely visible grain in 11(, a b 7 becomes thick and dark in fig. 9. Fig. 10. Red. The thick- ness of the first laminae was reduced by friction, so that blue and green stripes appear. Fig. 11.
