Abstract: January 7, 1939, marked the centenary of the day when Arago communicated to the French Academy of Sciences news of the invention by Daguerre of what was to be known as the daguerreotype. At the suggestion of the Société Française de Photographie that ceremonies and meetings be held by scientific and engineering bodies throughout the world to commemorate this Centenary, the Atlantic Coast Section of the SMPE devoted its January, 1939, meeting to two presentations: the one that follows, by Edward Epstean. describing the historical background of Daguerre's time, as related to photography, or “light writing”; and the second by Beaumont Newhall, describing more an detail the work of Daguerre and his process.
