Interesting indeed and theorized many times. Now a new book asserts that Leonardo was the creator of the world's first negative,
From Italy's Corriere della Sera newspaper.
"il primo negativo "fotografico" della storia che ha come matrice un'immagine mentale»
«Così Leonardo creò la Sindone»
La tesi della scrittrice Vittoria Haziel: «Il maestro usò un ferro arroventato e disegnò sulla tela il suo autoritratto»
Interesting for us photographers.

There was something right about the skin tones of the D 1-X. Only the Fuji S2-Pro did better. The Nikkor 35-135 F 3.5-4.5 was used. -

Why should anyone care about this fake object when a much more important holy relic has already been discovered in Stephan Huller's book, the Real Messiah:

Huller went to Venice and proved that the Throne of St. Mark in the Basilica San Marco dates to the beginning of Christianity. His book proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Christianity started in Egypt.
This is a real historical object, i.e. it is not a fake. You can see it with your own two eyes the next time you go to Italy. It is also being made into a TV documentary for a US Cable network.
Again, why waste your time with this 'Ark of the Covenant' nonsense when it is completely fake.
The book costs about $18 but you can get it sometimes for less than that. Maybe if you are still sitting on the fence check out his blog instead at wwww.stephanhuller.blogspot.com.
It's really cool.

I agree, the whole Christian movement has roots in Egyptian rites of initiation. Hermes, Osiris etc.
ReplyDeleteMy point was not to make a religious statement, as this is not a religion site. I was trying to focus on the fact that Da Vinci made the first negative and that to photographers, at least, it should be of some interest. Thanks for the info on the book.

Cool. That Leonardo. So cutting edge.
