Magic Lanterns: 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, originating from shadow plays, made it possible to project images reproduced on glass plates onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its many uses—scientific, educational, or playful—made it a practical yet entertaining object. The museum "A Possen" invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures in its temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: a journey into the heart of stories." Witnesses of an era when technology and art came together to amaze, these objects tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
