The creator of this image, J. Fronti is listed in Boris Kossoy's Dicionßrio Histórico-Fotogrßfico Brasileiro: Fotógrafos e ofício da fotografia no Brasil (1833-1910), (2002). In 1860 Fronti announced to the public that he was prepared to take photographs using the ambrotype method and in 1861 participated in the National Exposition.
