''Historique et description des procédés du daguerréotype et du diorama'' (English: Historical and Descriptive Account of the Processes of the Daguerreotype and the Diorama) is a seminal work in the history of photography, authored by Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre, a French artist and photographer recognized for his invention of the daguerreotype process of photography. Published in 1839, this treatise provides a comprehensive account of the development and mechanics of Daguerre's groundbreaking photographic process, as well as his earlier work with the diorama, a form of entertainment that was a precursor to modern-day cinema.

The book is historically significant as it marks the public disclosure of the daguerreotype process, which was the first practical photographic process and a major technological advancement of the time. Daguerre's detailed description of the method allowed for the rapid spread and adoption of photography as a medium, fundamentally altering the way images were produced and shared. The daguerreotype process involved capturing images directly onto a silvered copper plate, which was then developed using mercury vapor and fixed with a salt solution, producing a highly detailed and one-of-a-kind photograph.

In addition to the technical exposition, Daguerre's work also delves into the aesthetic and practical implications of these visual technologies, reflecting on their potential to change the arts and communication. The publication of ''Historique et description des procédés du daguerréotype et du diorama'' is considered a pivotal moment in the history of visual media, and the book remains an important reference for historians and scholars of photography and early cinema.

Daguerre's contribution through this publication is not only limited to the technical aspects of the daguerreotype but also extends to the broader cultural and artistic impact of the medium. The book is a testament to the intersection of art, science, and technology during the 19th century and continues to be a valuable resource for understanding the origins and evolution of photographic art.
