Daguerreotypes were produced from 1839 to the 1860s. The process was developed by Louis-Jacques Mandé Daguerre, who discovered how to fix images produced by cameras obscura. Daguerreotypes became a popular means of portraiture, especially by the late 1840s when exposure times were reduced to only a few seconds. Daguerreotypes were usurped by ambrotypes in the 1850s because they were faster and cheaper to produce.
This unique picture is framed in gold toned metal and set in deep wood with lovely design on the outside. This storage was used to protect the delicate face of the photo. This special type of original photography is known for its mirror like finish and you can see the picture go in and out depending on the angle that it is being looked at from. Outer case shows signs of wear. Deep red velvet on the inside.
Measures 2 and 3/4ths by 3 and 1/8ths of an inch.
