EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the late 19th century, showcasing an extraordinary invention known as the magic lantern. The metallic beauty of this antique device is highlighted against a pristine white background, allowing every intricate detail to shine through. With its old-fashioned charm and historical significance, this studio shot transports us into an era where projection equipment was at its infancy. The side view of this brass magic lantern reveals its elegant craftsmanship and reminds us of the ingenuity that went into creating such a remarkable piece of technology. As we gaze upon it, we can almost imagine the enchanting images it once projected onto screens or walls, captivating audiences with their mesmerizing stories. With no people present in the frame, our attention is solely focused on this single object from the past. Its presence evokes nostalgia and curiosity about how life must have been during those times when lanterna magica presentations were a popular form of entertainment. Dave King's expert photography skillfully captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of reverence for history itself. This image serves as a reminder that even though time moves forward relentlessly, there will always be remnants from bygone eras that continue to fascinate and inspire us today.
