Louis Daguerre: Artist Of The Week

Artist Of The Week: Louis Daguerre

1. How’s the composition?

2. What do you find interesting about his work?

3. How is the technical quality? 

  1. The woman is looking of at a spot in the distance with nature in the background, but she looks very uncomfortable in the photo.
  2. I find it interesting that the photo has this quality for it being such an early development in photography.
  3. The technical quality of the photograph is fantastic in this photo when you consider the time in which the photo was taken. The picture is relatively clear for it being one of the early photos to be taken.
  1. There is a huge building in the photo with some trees in the front, but there are no leaves so it can be assumed that it is winter during this photo.
  2. I find it interesting that there is white that is the same color of the building, around the actual building. This area is sky, so I wonder why it is still white.
  3. The technical quality of the photograph is decent in this photo when considered the time the photo was taken. The building is sort of clear in the black and white photo.
