Sunrise over Brussels: the first year of photography in Belgium.

This detailed research on the ""First year of photography in
Belgium'' shows the influence Jean Jobard ( a Belgian newpaper
man) had on the decision of Daguerre to patent in England.
Jobard published his encounters and writings to Daguerre in his
own newspaper ""Le Courrier Belge''. Jobard was the first
daguerreotypist in Belgium, the second was Antoine Dewasme,
director of a lithographic workshop in Brussels. The first 2
portrait studios opened in Brussels in 1842.
