Hippolyte Bayard, French Photographer

Self-portrait in garden, Hippolyte Bayard, c. 1845-1849. Hippolyte Bayard (1801-1887) was a French photographer and pioneer in the history of photography. He invented his own process that produced direct positive paper prints in the camera and presented the world's first public exhibition of photographs on 24 June 1839. He claimed to have invented photography earlier than Louis-Jacques Mandé Daguerre in France and William Henry Fox Talbot in England, the men traditionally credited with its invention.
