Chess photography
text:
The earliest surviving photograph depicting chess is most often credited to William Henry Fox Talbot, and consists of a portrait of two players seated at a chess board. There is still considerable debate as to who should be credited with the image. Titled Chess Players, the photo was published in Nicolaas Henneman's 1847 collection Talbotypes or Sun Pictures. One of the players, Antoine Claudet, was a known friend of Talbot. However, the identity of his opponent, initialed "M", is still unknown.
