Images of History on the Web
"In the years since photography's sesquicentennial anniversary (1839-1989), the growth of the Internet and the application of digital technology to the history of this one-time analog medium has given researchers an unprecedented glimpse into our collective past. The reaction to the French public announcement in August 1839 of L.J.M. Daguerre's photographic process, named in his honor the daguerreotype, deeply affected — and still does — human consciousness. With good reason. The daguerreotype was referred to as "the mirror of nature." Much like software and hardware changes today, rapid advances in photographic technology often steamrolled the competition. The introduction of photography on the world scene is often compared with the public's adoption of the Internet as a new communications and artistic medium. In an essay on the impact of photography, eerily prescient of late 20th century French postmodernists, the 19th century French poet Charles Baudelaire wrote, "...I am convinced that the ill-applied developments of photography, like all other purely material developments of progress, have contributed much to the impoverishment of the French artistic genius, which is already so scarce" ("Photography" [1859], Charles Baudelaire, in Photography: Essays & Images, edited by Beaumont Newall, 1980; online French transcription, "Le public moderne et la photographie," http://baudelaire.zy-va.com).
