Edmund Evans’ Printing Press

Origin
Edmund Evans was a wood engraver and color printer in the Victorian era. During this time, he specialized in full color printing. He did many illustrations for children’s books and toys, adding color with a process called chromoxylography. It used a minimal amount of colors, but Evans was able to mix them to create many more.

Effects
Laying a picture of a location will turn that place more childlike and whimsical, adding more color and toys. It even changes the people to become more exciting and in line with a typical children’s story. The user will be able to see more colors than the eye normally sees. The mixture will become so vibrant, it will cause the user’s brain to reject what their eyes see and cause blindness.
