Daguerreotype Portrait of a Group Posing in Front of Niagara Falls Attributed to Photographer Thomas Easterly (1840s/1850s)

 

Daguerreotype portrait of a group posing in front of Niagara Falls attributed to Thomas Easterly, c. 1850. A section from an 1838 poem about Niagara Falls by J. S. Buckingham is inscribed on the bottom of the plate and is signed in part "Easterly Daguerrean" at the end. The photo was possibly actually taken by photographer Platt D. Babbit, as he was known to take many photographs from this position during the 1850s.
