The daguerreotype is a one-of-a-kind, highly detailed photographic image on a polished copper plate coated with silver. It was the first popular photographic medium and enjoyed great success when it was introduced in 1839.
Although primarily a nineteenth-century medium involving a painstaking process, daguerreotypy is still practiced today by an active--and avid--group of devotees.

We weren't the first generation to use photography for selfie-expression.

Fascinating! And to think we only have to press a button on our phones these days. I can't imagine the extent of experimentation it took to come up with the right formula of chemicals/minerals and steps in the early procedure.

Wow! Just in awe of how Louis Daguerre came up with this whole process... All credit to these early photographic pioneers, and thank you!

How can you not like this video? Aside that "cleaning the plate" might be more precisely explained.

I thought the old darkroom was a lot of work.

*Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre*, inventor of one of the first photographic methods, was born today in 1787. *Learn how daguerreotypes were made* in this short video. #photography #art

Were prints made using this?

@phuphuphnik 8 лет назад

+Vinay Seth no. Although copies could be made by taking a picture of the image. To make prints the image needs to be on a transparent medium. Silver clad copper plates are not transparent.
