  Hippolyte Bayard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hippolyte Bayard (January 20, 1807 - May 14, 1887) was one of the earliest photographers in the history of photography, inventing his own photography process known as direct positive printing and presenting the world's first public exhibition of photographs on June 24, 1839.
Bayard was persuaded to postpone announcing his process to the French Academy of Sciences by François Arago, a friend of Louis Daguerre, who invented the rival daguerreotype process.
Bayard was also one of the first photographers to be commissioned to document and preserve architecture and historical sites in France for the Mission Héliographique in 1851 by the Historic Monument Commission.

Bayard, a Civil Servant, was one of the earliest of photographers.
When Bayard eventually gave details of the process to the French Academy of Sciences on 24 February 1840, he had lost the opportunity to be regarded as the inventor of photography.
Bayard's somewhat surreal self-portrait (October 1840), depicting him as a drowned man, is by way of protest against this injustice of having been pipped at the post because he had kept quiet about his invention.

In October 1840, French photographic inventor Hippolyte Bayard produced his "Self-portrait as a Drowned Man." It's a photograph of Bayard's nude dead body, claims an inscription on the back -- unrecognized and unclaimed in the morgue.
Bayard's 1840 "Self-Portrait" has been described as the "first fictional photograph," fixing forever after photography's schizophrenic nature -- the standard, on the one hand, of unvarnished, objective truth and, on the other, the chosen medium of fakery and deception.
The work of the three youngish photographers in the show, each of whom stages his or her images in the Bayard tradition, supply enough ideas and problems to make this small show a fascinating one.
