Abstract
An image-recording method includes applying an ink to a recording medium and applying a liquid composition to the recording medium. The ink contains a pigment, and the liquid composition disturbs the dispersion state of the pigment in the ink. The applied liquid composition at least partially overlaps the area where the ink is applied. The ink contains a resin particle, a water-soluble resin, and at least one surfactant selected from fluorinated surfactants and silicone surfactants. The surfactant content of the ink is 2% by mass or more based on the total mass of the ink, and the mass ratio of the water-soluble resin content to the surfactant content of the ink is 0.3 or more and 3.0 or less.
