A cartouche of a camera (top right of the label) embracing the names of Chevalier and Daguerre, and the primitive paper matt, the lack of a case, the claim of daguerreotypes in a few seconds (presumably after the introduction of the first accelerator), the characteristic blue tone of the plate, and the year of Chevalier’s death, 1841, together suggest a daguerreotype taken in 1841 or prior. 713 713 label 160 714 part 714 DAGUERREOTYPE PORTRAIT FROM THE STUDIO OF RICHARD BEARD A fine and rare three-quarter profile of a lady, 1841-2, overall size app. 6.45cm., matted to an oval approx. 3.9 x 3.2cm., from the first daguerreotype portrait studio in London.

INTRODUCTION Events in Bosnia, combined with the fiftieth anniversary of the termination of World War II, have renewed interest in the international prosecution of war crimes. Discussions have centered on the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and the Control Council Law No. 10 courts in occupied Germany. Nonetheless, scant attention has been paid to the plethora of post-war prosecutions before domestic civil and military tribunals. These trials, in addition to their historic import, were significant in shaping the humanitarian law of war.
