سلام دوستان عزیز
در سال 1839 و یک سال پس از حضور اولین انسان در عکس (پست قبلی) ، جناب Robert Cornelius اولین پرتره (با نورپردازی) تاریخ را در شهر فیلادلفیا به ثبت رسانید.
البته اولین سلف پرتره هم هست چون خود جنابشان در عکس دیده می شود.
داستان این عکس :
On a sunny day in October, Robert Cornelius set up his camera in the back of his father’s gas lamp-importing business on Chestnut Street in Center City, Philadelphia. After removing the lens cap, he sprinted into the frame, where he sat for more than a minute before covering up the lens. The picture he produced that day was the first photographic self-portrait. It is also widely considered the first successful photographic portrait of a human being.
[...] the words written on the back of the self-portrait, in Cornelius’ own hand, said it all: “The first light Picture ever taken. 1839.”
