Date

[edit]

Using the foliage on the leaves as well as the angle of the shadows, the date of this photograph has been placed between 24 April and 4 May. Daguerre's Diorama burned down in March 1839 and Samuel Morse saw the photograph in the same month, therefore it is not possible that it was taken in 1839.

This source also says that a date of 1837 is possible. Cesias7 (talk) 10:57, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
