Robert Cornelius, self-portrait (1839)
This self-portrait of Robert Cornelius, a quarter-plate daguerreotype made in Philadelphia in November, 1839, is said to be one of the earliest photographs taken in the United States.
Happy 184th birthday to the world’s first selfie, taken by thirty-year-old Philadelphian photographer Robert Cornelius some time in October, 1839.
“Daguerre announced his invention of a photographic method to the French Academy of Sciences in August 1839. That October, a young Philadelphian, Robert Cornelius, working out of doors to take advantage of the light, made this head-and-shoulders self-portrait using a box fitted with a lens from an opera glass. In the portrait, Cornelius stands slightly off-center with hair askew, in the yard behind his family's lamp and chandelier store, peering uncertainly into the camera. Early daguerreotypy required a long exposure time, ranging from three to fifteen minutes, making the process nearly impractical for portraiture.” Source: "Photographic Material," by Carol Johnson. In Gathering History: the Marian S. Carson Collection of Americana, 1999, p. 100. https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2004664436/
