The ART OF DA6UERRE.


Although the improvements in pho
Biography are made so rapidly nova
days that even the professional pho
toTapher can hardly keep track Of
them, there are many picture-makers.
says the Century Magazine, who be
heve the world VIII turn back to the
daguerrotype for its beautiful and
most artistic portraits.
1t Is more than sixty years since the
scientific world was aroused by the
announcement that Daguerre, a
Frenchman. had discovered a method
OF fixing the image made by the cam.
era Obscura. 1t was a crude method
then. The first picture, Of a tree
standing in the sun, required half an
hour or more Of exposure. That was
the same year In which Samuel r. y.
Morse went to Europe to exhibit his
new electric telegraph The two in.
yentOrs met by appointment IN Paris
and explained their work to each
other.
DagueTe's plate was Of pure silver.
It was thoroughly cleaned and polish
ed. In & dark room it was next coated
with a film deposited by the vapOr Of
iOdin. and then exposed In the camera.
Sull protected from the light, It was
placed over the fumes Of hot mer-
curry. which developed the image. and
It was then made permanent with
Chord Of gold
This process was soon improved. uu-
Ill on bright days the sitting for da-
guerreotype was reduced to ten, some
times to FIVE. seconds. Even with this
short exposure, however. the likeness.
es were remarkable. 1t Is possible to
assume an artificial expression and
hold It for the brief second before n
nRdern camera, but to remain motion
iess for the long time required for a
dad uerreotype, It was necessary that
Sthe features should be in repOse In
their natural position.
The daguerreOtype was q positive,
impossible to retOueh. II was Of A
soft. hesh-like tone. which even to-day,
in the specimens OF the art preserved
In collections and among family relies,
wins admiration. The dAguerreOtypa
gave way 20 the cheaper ambrotype.
