lot 145 – a cased daguerreotype from the 1800s studio of Henry Warren<\/p><\/div>\n

Toronto<\/strong>. Okay, it’s not the most subtle expression but our Fall Estate auction<\/a> on September 17th will \u00a0include some cased and uncased images including this uncased daguerreotype (lot 145) taken by Henry Warren down in Waltham, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

Dags are amongst the oldest of photographic images. In fact, a society<\/a> is dedicated to the Daguerreotype. Ironically, the American society is far more interested in the history of these images and their process than any organization in Europe. It was in France where Louis Daguerre discovered and announced this amazing process (the relative interests are from comments mentioned to me by our late editor, Bob Lansdale, after his visit to France and the home of Niepce and Daguerre).<\/p>\n

There is even a Toronto connection: PHSC past president Dr Mike Robinson is one of the few modern-day professional Daguerreotypists (only a half-dozen or so are known to exist). Mike’s studio<\/a> is in the east end of the city. Mike is also a past president of the Daguerreian Society whose members included a few PHSC members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
