Magic Lantern: A Journey into the Heart of Stories
- exhibition
- museum
Show & CultureShow & CultureBefore cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of animated images and optical shows. The magic lantern, which originated from shadow plays, made it possible to project images reproduced on glass plates onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its many scientific, educational or playful uses made it a practical and entertaining object. These objects bear witness to a time when technology and art came together to inspire wonder, telling the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
