Point de vue du Gras

An Anecdote

The Advent of photography

The Oldest Surviving Photograph

View from the Window at Le Gras (French: Point de vue du Gras)

is the oldest surviving photograph. It was created by French inventor Nicéphore Niépce

sometime between 1826 and 1827 in Saint-Loup-de-Varennes, France,

and shows parts of the buildings and surrounding countryside of his estate, Le Gras,

as seen from a high window.

The image was created by heliography, a process which Niépce had invented around 1822,

and which uses the hardening of bitumen in light to record an image

after washing off the remaining unhardened material.

Niépce captured the scene with a camera obscura projected

onto a 16.2 cm × 20.2 cm (6.4 in × 8.0 in) pewter plate

thinly coated with bitumen of Judea, a naturally occurring asphalt.

The bitumen hardened in the brightly lit areas,

but in the dimly lit areas it remained soluble and could be washed away

A very long exposure in the camera was required.

Sunlight strikes the buildings on opposite sides,

suggesting an exposure that lasted about eight hours,

which has become the traditional estimate;

however, a modern researcher who studied Niépce's notes and

recreated his processes found that the exposure must have continued for several days.
