inkjet on German etching paper from distressed negative

 

What is it? a traditional photographic image on film. The film has then been "distressed" and printed or scanned. The resulting scan was printed using a inkjet on to German Etching paper which is acid- and lignin-free, coated on one side to recieve inkjet ink without undue absorption.
