MAGIC LANTERN : Optical ProjectionTheMagic Lantern, or the Lanterna Magica was the forerunner of the modern slide projector. The device consisted of an oil lamp and a lens, with images painted on glass plates which could be projected on to a suitable screen.

Although its invention was credited to Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens (1629-95), some reports trace it back to 2nd century China. Chronicled in Athanasius Kircher’s Ars Magna Lucis et Umbrae with the fi rst illustrations of the magic lantern projecting images, it was the fi rst recording of the device in the west.

The optical system in Magic Lanterns was, in the early years, very crude consisting of a light source and a single lens to focus the picture onto a distant screen. Later, as an understanding of optics in other fi elds was developed, it was applied to the art of projection resulting in even sharper pictures on the screen.

As it became more sophisticated, the lantern consisted of an internal light source and a system of mirrors and lenses to

focus light and project images.

A concave mirror is fi xed to the back to intensify the light by refl ecting the beams forward, parallel to each other. At the front, opposite the mirror, is a tube with vertical convex lenses inside it. Beyond the common focus point of the two lenses a transparent picture (slide) is inserted into the box, reversed and upside down. The Magic Lantern projects a corrected version of this image onto a screen or wall.

Over the period of a little more than 200 years, the Magic Lantern developed from basic projectors such as the SturmLantern, capable of producing small, dimly lit images to the magnifi cent Triunials, which were even capable of alluding animation. In the hands of a consummate showman these machines could provide dazzling entertainment for hundreds of people.
