Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories
Before cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of animated images and optical spectacles. The magic lantern, which has its origins in shadow plays, 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 a practical as well as entertaining object.
The museum "A Possen" invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures as part of its temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories." Witnesses to a time when technology and art merged to amaze, these objects tell the history of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
