History Of Photography (1940s)

The Eastman House in Rochester, New York, showcases the evolution of photography over more than a century through unique exhibitions. Visitors can explore the history of this revolutionary art form, from early techniques like the camera obscura and daguerreotype to modern innovations such as secret cameras. The museum highlights significant developments in photography, including the negative-positive process by William Henry Fox Talbot and the introduction of the dry plate process, which made photography accessible to the masses. The collection also features historical photographs, including Civil War images captured by Matthew Brady, illustrating the impact of photography on documenting history.
