Produced by Mathew Brady's studio. This daguerreotype has been attributed to two photographers. John Carl Frederick Polycarpus Von Schneidau is identified as the photographer in Daguerreotype in America by Beaumont Newhall. New York: Dover, 1976, p. 59, and in America of the Fifties: Letters of Fredrika Bremer. New York: American-Scandinavian Foundation, 1924, p. 210. The second attribution is to Luther Boswell. The Chrysler Museum acquired a daguerreotype of Jenny Lind along with a note from Mrs. Luther Boswell that described Lind coming to Brady's studio where operator Luther Boswell made the exposure. The Museum's plate is a copy of the daguerreotype in the Library of Congress. (Source: National Portrait Gallery, Brady exhibit, http://www.npg.si.edu/exh/brady/gallery/17gal.html)
