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, which originated in shadow play, made it possible to project images reproduced on glass plates onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its many scientific, educational, and playful uses made it both practical and entertaining. The museum "A Possen" invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures as part of its temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: A Journey into the Heart of Stories." Bearing witness to a time when technology and art came together to amaze, these objects tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
