caption_attribution_description: The original was created in 1851, so I think it is safe to say the author died a 100 years ago. It is claimed by Getty images on the site included at the link, but I boldly think the image is in the public domain. This is a chromolithograph by Chereau that depicts Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre and the nephew of Joseph Niepce, Claude-Felix-Abel Niepce de Saint-Victor.
context_page_description: Claude Félix Abel Niépce was a French inventor and the older brother of the more celebrated Nicéphore Niépce. Claude traveled to England to try to find a sponsor for their internal combustion engine and died there. His brother's later successful development of photography has eclipsed the part played by Claude.
