The day Niepce successfully achieved a “view-point” for the first time, it was possible for man to believe that a century-old dream was being fulfilled: the dream of obtaining a reproduction of reality that would be absolutely faithful and could be preserved. The people of the time, surprised to see that in a daguerreotype, the first widely diffused form of photography, they could “count the tiles on a roof,” somewhat naively believed that they had succeeded in catching hold of reality. Confronted with this new picture, which was of a still unknown kind and must understandably have been illusive at first glance, they were carried away by a childish enthusiasm and hence did not realize that what they had before their eyes was only a simulacrum.
