This is among "...the largest form of Woodburytype encountered. Leon Vidal invented a form of color printing where various color separations were made for each part of a picture and printed by lithography, including the use of metallic inks. Over this he printed a Woodburytype which created a picture of remarkable depth and striking color."--Hanson Collection catalog, p. 69
