Famous historical photos: 1- View From The Window At Le Gras By Joseph Nicéphore Niépce

This was the first photograph that ever taken in history. It was quite surprising that the first photograph wasn’t taken by any artist but by an inventor named Nicepore Niepce. His extreme interest in printing led him to set up camera in his studio in France in 1826. The process of taking photo took almost 8 hours, that’s why the sun reflections and shadows travel in the photo in 8 hours passing time. That’s why you can see two reflections in the photo. There is only one copy of that photo. The photo isn’t clear but still one of the most famous picture in the history.
