Henry Fitz, Jr. Self-Portrait 1839 Daguerreotype National Museum of American History

This daguerreotype of Henry Fitz Jr. with his eyes closed is one of the first known photographic self-portraits. Fitz, an early innovator in the new field of photography, opened a daguerreotype studio in Baltimore in 1840. Later, as an accomplished and well-respected optician in New York City, he became well known for creating high-quality lenses for early cameras and telescopes. Fitz’s dreamy look in this self-portrait was actually the result of the five-minute exposure time in bright light that early daguerreotype cameras required of sitters.
