Directory of Baltimore Daguerreans
Sixth plate Daguerreotype from J.H. Whitehurst Gallery
For many years, Historic Graphics® has been researching the history of photography in 19th century Maryland that we have shared with the public in numerous publications. As a service to our visitors, we now offer a complete directory of those individuals that practiced the daguerreotype in Baltimore. This alphabetical listing includes biographical information, locations of operations, and, most importantly, the dates for business activity at these studio locations. In addition, we have included descriptions of methods used to sign images with the names of daguerreans to help you futher interpret the Baltimore daguerreotypes you might find. Our directory can be accessed by clicking below:
Historic Graphics® Museum
Over the years, Historic Graphics® has gathered together a large collection of vintage photographs that span the Victorian Era from the early daguerreotype to the end of the First World War. On a rotating basis, we share some of these images with you so you too can experience the visual legacy of our ancestors.
 Catographics
The first of our exhibits titled Catographics and presents early photographic portraits of people and their cats (or sometimes of just their cherished pet alone). We hope you enjoy this celebration of the bond between our ancestors and their special friends.
 A Woman's Work
The second of our exhibitions is titled A Woman's Work and features a collection of unique 19th century photographic portraits of women in which the subjects use clothing and/or props to interpret their occupations and domestic roles. Were the "good old days" really so good?
 A Child's Labor
The third and newest of our exhibitions is titled A Child's Labor and features a collection of unique 19th and early 20th century photographic portraits of children in which the subjects were recorded in a manner that interpreted their occupations. Remember that these portraits were made to celebrate the subjects' place in the workforce.
 We'll be watching for your return!
