A somber daguerreotype (is there any other kind?) dated 1833. Which predates Louis Daguerre's announcement of the daguerreotype by 6 years or so, so it's probably not very accurate. This guy looks like Edgar Allan Poe to me, or rather what I imagine EAP would look like had he not actually been photographed, I'm not sure why. And I like his tie.
Daguerreotypes are fun!
