The Daguerreian Society’s 2024 Symposium in Houston was filled with memorable moments. One of the highlights:

Society member Jeff Rosenheim, Curator in Charge of the Department of Photographs at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, gave attendees an exclusive advance look at the fabulous collection assembled by Society member William L. Schaeffer. The collection, recently acquired by the Met, will be on exhibit in the show “The New Art: American Photography, 1839–1910” April 11–July 20, 2025.

Society member Jeff Rosenheim, Curator in Charge of the Department of Photographs at the Met, delivers the keynote talk on “The New Art: American Photography, 1839–1910” at the 2024 Symposium in Houston.
