Overview
A6 Cyanotype Kit with Leaning Tower of Pisa Film 5 Sheets of Sun Paper 14.8 x 10.5 cm Cover Blue Print For Crafting with Children

This cyanotype kit featuring the Leaning Tower of Pisa is designed for creating your own blue sun prints in A6 format. Inside, you will find 5 sheets of light-sensitive paper measuring 14.8 x 10.5 cm, one film with a black and white motif, and a cover. The film depicts the famous leaning bell tower with rows of arcades beneath a dramatic cloudy sky. Sunlight transfers the image onto the paper, resulting in a detailed blue and white print capturing all levels of the tower. The finished images are perfect for framing, journaling, or as handmade gifts for friends.

The entire process is simple and can be managed by children under adult supervision. Place the paper inside the cover, lay the film with the motif on top, and leave the cover in direct sunlight for approximately 10–15 minutes. Afterwards, remove the sheet, rinse it in a container of clean water, and allow it to dry on a flat surface. If the exposure is too short, the motif may wash away during rinsing, and partial shading may cause uneven shades of blue. The light-sensitive solution is applied by hand, so there may be small spots on the reverse side of the sheets, which do not affect the final image.

  • Paper Format – A6, 14.8 x 10.5 cm
  • Number of Paper Sheets – 5
  • Exposure Time – approximately 10–15 minutes in direct sunlight

  • Packaging – black opaque bag
  • Contents of the Package – 5 sheets of A6 cyanotype paper, 1 film with the motif of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, 1 cover

After use, gently wipe the film dry and store it out of reach of water to keep it clean for future prints. Store the remaining sheets of paper in the black bag and only take them out when you are ready to print, as the light-sensitive layer reacts to daylight. The dried image can be framed, glued into a travel journal, or sent as an unusual postcard. If the first print does not turn out as expected, extend the exposure time for the next sheet or try printing in brighter weather. When working with children, prepare a bowl of water, a towel, and a flat surface where the wet images can dry undisturbed.

This kit is suitable for anyone who loves Italy, architecture, and handmade crafting, and wants to learn about the principles of an old photographic technique. With 5 sheets of paper, you can print the motif multiple times and experiment with different exposure times. The small A6 format is perfect for a shelf frame, on the fridge, or as an addition to a gift. It is a practical activity for a sunny afternoon for children, parents, and art clubs.
