The English School of the 19th century masterfully captured this momentous occasion, now preserved in a private collection. The image transports us back to a time when photography was still in its infancy, and Richard Beard stood at the forefront of this revolutionary art form. The advertisement proudly displays his patent rights and sole ownership as the patentee of daguerreotype photography.
