Text in French=====
Collotype is a photomechanical printing process that produces continuous-tone images, meaning it can reproduce a wide range of tones and shades without the need for halftones. It relies on a light-sensitive gelatin coating on a plate that hardens and becomes ink-receptive in proportion to the amount of light exposure. This allows for the creation of prints that capture subtle gradations of tone and detail, similar to photographs. ===
