Question answered - much appreciated!

(for those curious few - the term is actually Satista and is much easier
to find information on with the correct spelling!)

Subject: [ARLIS-L] Photographic process question
Dear Collective Wisdom,
I am looking for enlightenment on a photographic process called
"Statista" - with a capital "S".
The image appears to be a gelatin silver print type of process and was
taken by Tina Modotti in 1927.
I have checked all of the usual photography sources with no luck. I
have a feeling that the process was a variant of the gelatin silver
print and named after its creator. It was probably used for only a very
brief time and by a very limited number of photographers.
Thanks -
