By "fine lines" you mean the sketch?

unfortunately, I have no paintings of that age to submit, hence "moderately provable"
You understand that a huge number of major works have undergone reflectography or radiography?
No.
Nevermind, obviously you don't.

So, for clarification, there are techniques used to detect forgeries that quite easily disprove old paintings as touched up photographs.

Scientists historically acted like scientists. They made observations, formed hypotheses, tested them, and documented everything they did. It's how we can track when photography was first attempted, why it failed, and when it first succeeded. The fact tree trunks are round, and were abundantly available to pre-Columbian (Ah! There that "mysterious" 'Columbia' word again) aboriginals, does not mean they discovered the wheel. They had the resources. They had the skill. They did not have the wheel.

Nor did anyone from the 16th, 17th or 18th century have a photograph. Nor is the earth flat. Sorry.

Official history Photography wasn't really a scientific endeavor. I find it rather colorful, little tinkerers and big companies mostly in France USA and Britain stealing and trying to one-up each other with the next big thing. They didn't have this conception of this grand scientific method, they certainly didn't document it and not with any academic rigor, not as a rule. But it's just common logic and sense, the "scientific method". Many, like Daguerre, were uneducated tradesmen. It was an endeavor of craft, art and capitalism. They were trying to make money more than anything.

as your reading comprehension is questionable, let me re-state

was it silver or nitric silver crystals ?

should I say it slower, or use pictures

neither of those tests would tell the difference between (repeat after me)

nitric silver crystals or silver


"It's how we can track when photography was first attempted"

no, not really, but you are all knowing so...

by the way, and are you a scientist? I am. You are just an armchair google meister

additionally, lets recap a bit

why did the one building at the fair COMPLEX NOT catch fire while everything else was on fire?

How did a plaster structure survive 30 years of chicago winter?

How come you have to jump to another post without addressing the questions posted to your replys?

you can move along now, the adults are actually discussing interesting things, and you contribute very little as far as constructive stuff, but if you want to post pictures and books like you did, that is welcome
