In 1802 Thomas
Wedgwood, son of the famous potter Josiah Wedgwood, reported his
experiments
in recording images
on paper or leather sensitized
with silver nitrate. Although he could record silhouettes
of objects placed on the paper, he was not able to
make them permanent and, to his disappointment, he failed to record
a camera image.
