The early American daguerreotype : cross-currents in art and technology / Sarah Kate Gillespie

by Sarah Kate Gillespie

This study examines the American daguerreotype as a hybrid of fine art, science, and technology from 1839 to the 1860s. It traces the medium's evolution, professionalisation, and influence on various fields before its displacement by newer visual technologies.
