To provide a process for recording an image using a photoelectrodeposition method having high general-purpose properties that require no restriction on the selection of a material used as a substrate, a process for recording an image having (A) arranging a substrate 10 comprising a support 11, a conductive film 12 and a photosemiconductor thin film 13 laminated in this order, in such a manner that at least the photosemiconductor thin film 13 comes in contact with an electrodeposition solution 20; (B) applying an electric current or a voltage to the conductive film 12, and simultaneously irradiating the substrate 10 with light from the side of the photosemiconductor thin film 13 through the electrodeposition solution 20, and (C) generating a photoelectromotive force on a light irradiated part, so as to form an electrodeposition film 21 on the light irradiated part. The process for recording an image further comprises, if desired, (D) transferring the electrodeposition film 21 onto an image retaining substrate 40, such as ordinary paper.
