Every year, we celebrate the Day of Hungarian Photography to commemorate the invention of an early photographic process: the daguerreotype. In honour of the special day, Budapest museums are awaiting you with extraordinary exhibitions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Background<\/h3>\n

In Hungary, daguerreotype photography (the first practicable method of obtaining permanent images with a camera) was introduced on 29 August, 1840 when Antal V\u00e1llas, an arithmetic teacher at the University of Pest, presented the complete daguerreotype process from preparation to exposition and photo-finishing at the meeting of the Hungarian Society of Sciences. The process itself was invented by Louis-Jacques-Mand\u00e9 Daguerre, a French artist and photographer, also known as one of the fathers of photography.<\/p>\n
