This book delivers an in-depth analysis of Hercule Florence, who is
virtually unknown despite being among the world's photographic
pioneers. Based on the texts of various manuscripts, letters,
diaries, notes, and advertisements, this book answers numerous
questions surrounding Florence's work, including the materials,
methods, and techniques he employed and why it took more than a
century for his discovery to come to light. Kossoy's groundbreaking
research establishes Florence's use of "photographie" to describe
the product of his experiments, half a decade before Sir John
Herschel recommended "photography" to Henry Fox Talbot. This book
aims to change the fact that despite its cultural and historical
importance, Florence's photographic breakthrough remains largely
unknown in the English-speaking world.
