who was responsible for inventing photographs taken on silvered copperplates
Daguerreotype Invented by Louis-Jacques-MandÃ© Daguerre and introduced worldwide in 1839,[4][5][6] daguerreotype was almost completely superseded by 1860 with new, less expensive processes yielding more readily viewable images. During the past few decades, there has been a small revival of daguerreotypy among photographers interested in making artistic use of early photographic processes.
