Two artists working in New York in the 1840s formed a partnership that remade print portraiture for a mass audience. One, Edward Anthony, was a daguerreotyp-ist and photographic entrepreneur; the other, Thomas Doney, was an engraver specializing in mezzotints. A good example of their collaboration portrays former president Andrew Jackson as he looked just two months before he died in 1845.
