Daguerreotype Beauties From The 19th Century Brought To Life (Animated)

► Hello everyone and welcome back to Mystery Scoop. Today we're looking at the early photography of the 19th century and few beautiful examples from that era, brought to life using colorization and AI animations. Daguerreotypes, as earliest forms of photographs, are unique images on highly polished silver plates. The process was invented in France by Louis Daguerre and was introduced to the world in 1839. American photographers quickly capitalized on this new invention, which was capable of capturing a "truthful likeness" and although born in Europe, the daguerreotype became extremely popular in the United States. Due to their vulnerability, most daguerreotypes are presented in a special housing, as open model or a folding case. For today's video I have selected few examples of this form of photographs depicting portraits of young women in 1850s and 60s, mostly unidentified. For extra flair, facial animations have been added using AI technology that bring these 19th century beauties to life.

When my grandfather developed the film and made the prints, he made exactly twelve copies of the photo. There were exactly twelve of us grandchildren.

I don't have any daguerreotypes (they're expensive!), but I have three ambrotypes (their successor), as well as cabinet cards, tintypes, real photo postcards (RPPC), etc. I prefer looking at images of that earlier world than the ugly one we have today.

@12thDecember 9 месяцев назад

It's easy to romanticize or idealize the past, but the world is no uglier now than it was then. Most of these women were probably alive during Bloody Kansas and the Civil War, and there was certainly plenty of vulgar attitudes toward and mistreatment of women in the 19th century.

@johngrant5448 3 года назад

Whenever I look at this astonishing work I often wonder what the sitter would think about the result. I would imagine that they would be very emotional. The addition of colour and contrast really brings the image to life and reveals the beauty that the photographer saw at the time. The only negative thing here is that, the hairdressers of the day have a lot to answer for.

Capturing a picture of ourselves for our future memories was seen as something to be done with some effort. Much like even poor people dressed nicely with suits and hats and shined shoes, even children. There was a sense of value in ourselves and in our relations to one another as part of one society, even if we were unequal in status. A certain pride in humanity itself and those who came before, and for those who would follow after ourselves. Consumption-driven and individualistic society has thrown it all away.

Beautiful portraits... impossible not to fall in love with some of them...

@douglascox9996 3 года назад

Exposure time for these portraits was about 15 minutes or more. To keep the people still long enough, a clamp affixed to a standing rod held the head from behind. Smiling was not as in vogue in those time anyway, but holding anything other than the stolid facial expressions seen here would have been very difficult. Street scenes captured on daguerreotypes would have been eerily vacant, with only buildings plainly seen and the human, animal, and vehicle traffic captured in strange blurs. Occasionally, a human image might have been captured lounging against a wall. It was customary to immortalize the images of children and young people after their deaths by posing their bodies as though sleeping.

@MysteryScoop 3 года назад

Exactly, in early years but than the timing improved... I read somewhere when Louis took picture of a busy road, because of exposure time, you can only see one person polishing his shoes, the rest disappeared, could not be captured, unless you stay static for a long time, like this man did...

@Seele2015au 3 года назад

@@MysteryScoop Not really. The earliest pictures - including the famous one with the shoe-shine, was for the purpose of proving the possibility of capturing the image formed in what was still known as a camera obscura, with landscape (i.e. single combination) lenses working at around f/15, which would have led to very long exposure times. Soon afterwards, developments from Vienna brought about "portrait lens" working at around f/3.6, which cut the exposure time substantially, and sensitization method was further developed to increase sensitivity. During the time these pictures were taken, studios were on rooftops with glass ceilings and huge reflectors, coupled with improved plates and lenses, exposure time for these pictures would have been no longer than just a few seconds.

Hoping not to be redundant from my past comments: Your "bringing them back to life" stirs my soul....yes, all IS well with it! Have to say that misty eyes are a definite given when looking and being taken in by the awesomeness of your works! I cannot get enough of these joys. Thanks MS!!

These are fantastic. My dad was an amateur photographer & took many photos with his Box Brownie in India & the east during his time in WWII. It wasn't until late in his life that I saw his "tinted" photos. This was the method in those days of making a colour photo, they were unbelievable & he left behind a legacy of the time & the last days of the Raj. He said he could get a print from anything & that the Brownie had the best lens ever. He would have loved this, it is an amazing & thought provoking concept.

@queensrule4450 3 года назад

Bear in mind, though, washing the hair was infrequent and "shampoo" was lye-based soap. Pomade often consisted of wax and fat mixtures. Uncurled, hair length often went below the knee. "A woman's hair is her virtue" was a big thing at a time when piety was the fashion. And it all had to be combed, yards and yards of it, and then twisted up in rags to achieve the sausage curl or the small, tight curls. The first curling irons were heated in a fire and if you didn't know what you were doing, the likelihood of burning the hair was high. Not to mention the weight. All that greased-up hair pulling down while you're corseted to a point where breathing is compromised and bending the torso was impossible. It's a lovely thought from the modern viewpoint, but the reality was another thing altogether.

I just love these old photos! There are 2 things I noticed most about this era. The women's hair style looks like Princess Leia in Star Wars, A New Hope, and these women have the most beautiful, flawless skin. I would love to see some Antebellum photos, just for wardrobe and beautiful skin and hair! Thank you so much for sharing these!😊

It's hard for me to view time as linear these days. I tend to think that everyone we view as dead to us today are in fact alive in various stages of their lives in alternate realities. We just haven't yet found a way, that I'm aware of, to access these realities via time travel. I think it's all just an infinite time loop.

@CelestialCookies 3 года назад

Exactly! I've always thought of it that way but never been able to put it in words. If we look at it the traditional subjective way, then everybody is dead! From our perspective, the old generation are dead while from the perspective of the future generations, we are already dead. I just think of them as alive in another time (?) that I cannot access. I have no explanation for it, but it just makes more sense to me. I wish there were some reading material discussing this..

@Monster_Mover_Stocks 3 года назад

@@CelestialCookies Same here. I think there's just a lot that we don't know yet about existence itself.

It's extremely creepy the way their heads move but their hair (especially braids or ringlets going down the side of their face) do not. Sometimes their earrings don't move either. I'm guessing that the technology will advance in the next couple years to make them more realistic. I hope.

I have the good fortune to have inherited a daguerreotype photo of my beautiful great, great grandmother aged about 18 years in 1862. Recently opened up and cleaned in my presence by a professional conservator. To my astonishment my grandmother (Mary) had a slight pink flush on her cheeks ! It takes my breath away , I am so in awe to have her . I do hope someone will be able to claim these lovely girls as their own too.

Daguerrotypes were extremely expensive and one had to pose still for some 15 minutes. Yet they bring us history. The long lost people still exist. Great ! As an avid watch collector I like the watch on the neck on the first photo: she was not cheap ;)
