摘要：The article begins with a discussion of theoretical and methodological concerning about the relation between scopic regimes and image technologies. Then, it questions the objectivity of the notion of realism and, avoiding technological deterministic approaches, seeks to analyze some historical transformations that deeply affect the scopic regimes in the 19th century and that may help to explain why, in this specific moment, the development of the photography and afterwards, of the cinema became viable, thinkable and desirable.
