Hercule Florence's Human Design Chart
3/5 Emotional Manifesting GeneratorFrench-Monegasque-Brazilian painter and inventor, known as the isolate inventor of photography in Brazil, three years before Daguerre (but six years after Nicéphore Niépce), using the matrix negative/positive, still in use. According to Kossoy, who examined Florence’s notes, he referred to his process, in French, as photographie in 1834, at least four years before John Herschel coined the English word photography.
After a period of wandering and working on board of warships and merchant ships, Hércules Florence set sail to Brazil as a crew member of the French warship Marie Thérèze, arriving in the port of Rio de Janeiro on 1 May 1824, two years after the declaration of independence from Portugal. He was already an accomplished draftsman and painter with considerable talent and many scientific interests, particularly in the natural sciences and ethnography. Soon after his arrival, he got a job in a women’s fashion store and then as a lithographer in a bookstore and printing shop, owned by his compatriot Pierre Plancher.
He married twice and fathered a total of 20 children. He died at age 75 on 27 March 1879 in Campinas, Brazil.
