介绍（中）	马萨诸塞州卡博特维尔（现为奇科皮）的药剂师阿尔伯特·索斯沃斯（Albert Southworth）对弗朗索瓦·古罗（François Gouraud）在波士顿展示达盖尔的新发明感到着迷，他于1840年前往纽约与塞缪尔·莫尔斯（Samuel Morse）一起研究这项技术。不到一年，他就和莫尔斯的助手约瑟夫·彭内尔（Joseph Pennell）在波士顿开了一家银版照相工作室，后者是索斯沃斯在预科学校的室友。当Pennell于1843年离开公司时，Josiah Johnson Hawes接替了他的位置，Southworth和Hawes著名的十九年合作伙伴关系诞生了。该公司以其美学成就和技术技巧而闻名于世。索斯沃斯和霍伊斯的艺术野心清楚地体现在这幅古怪的半板银版索斯沃斯以古典半身像的幌子中。虽然很可能是一幅自画像，但有人猜测它可能是由霍伊斯制作的，他设计了一种流行的晕影技术。手工着色可能是由Southworth的妹妹Nancy涂抹的，她于1841年加入公司，并于1849年与霍伊斯结婚。这幅肖像画很不寻常，因为除了少数例外，美国银版打字员甚至很少暗示裸体。
介绍（英）	Fascinated by François Gouraud's demonstrations in Boston of Daguerre's new invention Albert Southworth, a pharmacist in Cabotville (now Chicopee), Massachusetts, went to New York in 1840 to study the technique with Samuel Morse. Within a year he had opened a daguerreotype studio in Boston with Morse's assistant, Joseph Pennell, who had been Southworth's roommate in preparatory school. When Pennell left the firm in 1843, Josiah Johnson Hawes took his place, and the celebrated nineteen-year partnership of Southworth and Hawes was born. The firm was known around the world for its aesthetic accomplishments and technical finesse. The artistic ambitions of Southworth and Hawes are clearly demonstrated in this eccentric half plate daguerreotype of Southworth in the guise of a classical bust. Although in all probability a self-portrait, there has been some speculation that it may have been made by Hawes, who devised a popular vignetting technique. The hand coloring was probably applied by Southworth's sister, Nancy, who joined the firm in 1841 and married Hawes in 1849. The portrait is unusual in that, with few exceptions, American daguerreotypists rarely even hinted at nudity.
