1838 - PREMIÈRE PHOTO D'UNE PERSONNE La photo "Boulevard du Temple" fut prise par Louis Daguerre en 1838 à Paris. Il s'agit de la toute première photographie d'une personne. C'est en fait une photo d'une rue très animée, et comme le temps d'exposition était supérieur à dix minutes, la foule qui se déplaçait trop rapidement n’apparait pas sur le cliché, à l'exception d'un homme dans le coin inférieur gauche de la photo qui est resté immobile pour se faire cirer ses bottes, suffisamment longtemps pour apparaître sur la photo. 1838 - FIRST PHOTOGRAPH OF A PERSON "Boulevard du temple" was taken by Louis Daguerre in the late 1838 in Paris. It is a picture of a busy street, and because the exposure time was over ten minutes, the city traffic was moving too much to appear, except for a man in the bottom left corner of the photo who stood still, whilst getting his boots polished, long enough to show up in the picture.
