Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre
n.d.
Postage stamp showing Daguerre, Grenada

Postage stamp
Archives of Modern Conflict OR National Gallery of Canada
The clothes are accurate, but Daguerre looks more like a native of this Caribbean Island than the inventor of photography as we know him.
 
This illustration was included in the lecture "The many faces of Daguerre" presented by Matt Isenburg at the Daguerreian Society Symposium (2009).
