Whereas Lippmann published a theory in the public domain, a requirement for the Nobel Prize, Ives was dependent on commercial sales. However, Ives was a critic of Lippmann’s process which competed with his own efforts for display and publicity. Here, I review the division of theory with mechanical invention that existed between Lippmann’s and Ives’ 3-Dimensional concepts. And I discuss the assessment by Herbert Ives (1882–1953), the son of Frederick Ives, of both these inventions.application/pdfporopenAccess3DFOTOGRAFIACORESLIPPMANN, GABRIELIVES, FREDERICKPHOTOGRAPHYCOLORSarticlehttps://doi.org/10.24140/ijsim.v5.n1.03
