William Henry Fox Talbot patented the calotype in 1841. It was the first photographic process that produced a negative to create a photograph. The calotype is the negative, typically produced on fine writing paper, although the resulting photograph is commonly referred to as the calotype. Because the photographs are made with a paper negative, the printed images tend to be soft and dreamy as the paper fibers diffuse the focus. The process appealed mainly to artists, amateurs, and scientists.
