Research and discuss 19th century innovation and development in the following fields: 1. Photography - the inventions, the methods and the people behind them. http://www.concordlibrary.org/scollect/Portrait_Exhibit/notes.html
The Origins of Photography:
Although photography as we know it today had its roots in the early 19th century, people have used cameras since the Renaissance. The camera obscura was used to project images onto paper, which allowed them to be traced. No one was able to secure a fixed image, however, until the 1820s, when Joseph Nicphore Nipce performed the first photomechanical process. He reproduced an engraving using bitumen dissolved in lavender oil, which, when exposed to light, becomes insoluble. He also took the first semipermanent photograph in 1827 using a process he called heliography. Daguerreotype: Louis Daguerre developed the daguerreotype in the late 1830s. The process involved coating a copper plate with silver nitrate, which was then sensitized with iodine fumes. The plate was exposed to light in a camera, developed with mercury fumes, and fixed with hyposulphite of soda, or "hypo." Each specimen was unique, reproducible only by making a camera copy of it. Since the polished silver coating was susceptible to tarnish, daguerreotypes were usually placed under glass in hinged cases. Ambrotype: In the early 1850s, Frederick Scott Archer developed the wet collodion process of photography. Collodion was a mixture of

guncotton in alcohol and ether that was sometimes applied to
wounds as a liquid bandage. Tintype: Tintypes, invented in 1856 by Hamilton L. Smith, used the same wet collodion process that was involved in making ambrotypes. The difference was in the material used as the support for the image. Instead of being printed on glass as ambrotypes were, tintypes were printed on blackened iron. Carte de Visite: The carte de visite portrait was introduced by Andr AdolpheEugne Disdri in 1854. The carte de visite was a small portrait glued to a card measuring 4 inches high by 2 1/2 inches wide.

How did they interact with photography? Describe the inventions, the methods and the people behind them ( For example: Degas, Pissaro, the Impressionists.) Others?
The fine art movements of this century were Romanticism and
Impressionism. The Impressionist movement was partially due to a new invention: the photograph. For centuries painters had worked to master techniques for the most realistic results possible. However, with cameras and photographs capable of producing exact replicas of an image, painters gained greater freedom. Artists were no longer the only means of recording an image and could choose to focus on something in their art besides realistic replication. Impressionist artists were influenced by the invention of the camera, because it gave them a cropped composition. It also showed the tonal effects of light and dark in much finer detail; making it easier for artists to capture the tone in their compositions.

3. Printing - the inventions, the methods and the people behind
them. Lithography was invented by Senefelder in 1796, but it took almost half a century for it to become an established method. The rotary lithographic press was invented by Hoe in 1846. How did these inventions change the graphic arts.? It was only around the mid 1800s that Litho color printing was discovered and the art of litho printing became even more popular towards the late eighteenth century when the first rotary lithographic press was invented. This allowed for the mass production of prints similar to that of letterpress printing but unfortunately the abrasive action of the rotary machine made the images on the stone plates wear off too soon and the rotary lithographic presses never really became popular.
Lithography however got another boost in1855 with the advent of
Photolithography. Again, difficulties in the creating of the lithographic plates resulted in this printing technique becoming dormant. But the wait was not too long and by the late 1800s the lithographic offset press was invented which ultimately resulted in lithography really taking off and more interest taken in this printing technique.
