Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories

- museum
Show & CultureShow & CultureBefore cinema and modern screens, there existed a whole world of animated images and optical spectacles. The magic lantern, originating from shadow plays, allowed images reproduced on glass plates to be projected onto walls. Popularized in the 19th century, its various scientific, educational, and entertaining uses made it both a practical and an amusing object. The museum “A Possen” invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures through the temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: A Journey to the Heart of Stories." Witnesses of a time when technology and art merged to amaze, these objects tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
