It is believed that William Henry Fox Talbot succeeded in making the first daguerreotype in America.
The daguerreotype was the earliest photographic technology, used widely during the mid-19th century. Its invention was credited to Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre in France.
Daguerreotype images are created using a highly polished silver sheet, usually with a copper or brass substrate
In 1839, William Henry Fox Talbot also introduced a cameraless photographic process in America which produced images of objects such as plants.
This ‘sensitive paper’ process was carried out by directly placing an object on a sheet of paper that was made sensitive to light to get its daguerreotype image.
