The idea of permanently capturing an image on a substrate was thought of by Thomas Wedgwood in England, but his early attempts used silver nitrate without a fixing agent, meaning the images could not leave darkened rooms.

The first known photograph taken by a camera is credited to French inventor Joseph Nicéphore Niépce, who in 1826 successfully captured a permanent image using a camera obscura.
