In 1727, Johann
Heinrich Schulze (1687-1744), a German
|
|
|
scientist found
that silver salts darkened when exposed to
|
|
|
sunlight and
published results that distinguished between the
|
|
action of light and heat
upon silver salts.
|
|
|
• |
Even after this
discovery, a method was needed to halt the
|
|
|
chemical
reaction so the image wouldn’t darken completely.
