The Spirit of Fact – Southworth and Hawes of Boston<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. \u00a0Within a year of the January 1839 announcement of Daguerre’s process in Paris, the new way to create images was known world-wide. By the early 1840s every major city had a daguerreotype portrait studio.<\/p>\n

Boston was no different. The works of Southworth and Hawes<\/a> (S&H) were known through out America. In 1976, a high quality edition of their selected work (1943-1862) was reproduced by David R Godine of Boston and the IMP at George Eastman House (GEH) using the GEH (now known as George Eastman Museum) archive of originals from the S&H studios. Some years later a Dover reproduction was release but with half size images and less faithful reproduction to the originals.<\/p>\n

A selection of quality images were also included in Grant Romer’s book “Young America<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

This Saturday, the Daguerreian Society<\/a> feature an online lecture on S&H,<\/a> “About a 1 hour conversation on Southworth and Hawes by Mike Robinson and Grant Romer drawing from the collection at The George Eastman House.<\/p>\n
