I need help with the entire sentence:
Und er hatte ja auch noch den Kunstmaler Lorenz Kain gesehen, wie er mühsam Strich für Strich an seinen Federzeichnungen der 12 alten Stadtansichten arbeitete und Heliegravüren, zum Quecksilberdämpfen und Silbersalzen entwickelten im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes "Abbildern der Natur" anstellen.
This is taken from a Lebensbild from a person living around 1890.

And he had also seen how the artist Lorenz Kain had painstakingly worked line for line on his pen-and-ink drawings of the 12 old city perspectives and developed heliogravures ... mercury vapours and silver bromides ... in the truest sense of the expression \"reflection of nature\".
I don\'t know how to deal with:
zum Quecksilberdämpfen und Silbersalzen entwickelten im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes \"Abbildern der Natur\" anstellen.
