Abstract
In an image recording apparatus, light having been modulated in accordance with an image signal is irradiated to a photographic material from one surface side of the photographic material, and an image is thereby recorded on the photographic material. The photographic material is composed of a plurality of layers including an approximately transparent substrate and an emulsion layer overlaid on at least one surface of the substrate. Degrees of gloss of the front surface and the back surface of the photographic material are different from each other. A selection device selects a surface of the photographic material, from the side of which surface the image recorded on the photographic material is to be seen. An inversion device inverts the image signal in accordance with an output of the selection device such that an erect image may be seen from the side of the surface of the photographic material, which surface has been selected by the selection device.
