The two pieces of glass were first coated with a thin film of gelatin, and then a liquid photo emulsion, Liquid Light, was brushed on. The glass was then exposed to black and white negitives in the darkroom.
They are displayed in an open-backed frame that can hold multiple pieces of glass separated slightly from each other. The light shines from the back illuminating the caged lion.
