Magic Lanterns: a journey to the heart of stories
Before cinema and modern screens, there was a whole world of moving images and optical shows. The magic lantern, whose origins lie in shadow play, allowed images reproduced on glass plates to be projected 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." These objects, witnesses to a time when technology and art came together to amaze, tell the story of a visual spectacle that preceded modern cinema.
