Magic Lanterns: a Journey to the Heart of Stories

- museum
Show & CultureShow & CultureBefore cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of moving images and optical shows. The magic lantern, which finds its origin in 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 and entertaining object. The "A Possen" museum invites you to rediscover these forgotten treasures through its temporary exhibition "Magic Lanterns: a Journey to the Heart of Stories." These objects, witnesses to a time when technology and art merged to amaze, tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
