August Strindberg- Celestographs

Celestograph X


Celestograph XIII


Celestograph XV


Images from the 1890's created by placing photographic plates on the ground or a window sill and exposing them to a night sky, sometimes while already in the developer. The photographs offer a double view of stars or possibly dirt and atmospheric particles present during exposure/developing. They were described as a "physical collaboration with weather" here.
