    It's on the Boulevard du Temple, Paris, and taken by none other than Daguerre.

    If I remember well, the man was caught on photo because he's standing long enough during the shoe shine session. The exposure time was over ten minutes for these first daguerreotypes. That's why the street looks empty.
