Magic Lantern group
Features
Age: 19th Century / 1801 - 1900
Description
Interesting group of magic lanterns, probably coming from the warehouse of old antique dealer. Beautiful hand painted glasses, mounted on card stock with support, or in wooden looms, accompanied some even by written description on the edge; We like the glass of "cat stivalato taking rabbits with sack full of game, pretending to sleep" or "Robinson is a savage who escapes, rescues him from his pursuers he keeps with him and calls him Friday". Complete the group some boxes made of wood and cardboard, lanterns or their accessories. Defect of the group is the sum of many parts being incomplete or not consistent with each other, but of great charm.
