To carry out this research, we used as documents the adverts of daguerreotypists in the newspapers of the period circulating in the court and the manual on how to produce daguerreotypes. Based on the information contained in the advertisements, we established categories in order to systematise the data. In this way, it was possible to compare the general information on daguerreotype production and the particularities presented by the photographers, relating the data and making it possible to map the process of knowledge in this period.
