Praxinoscope. Invented by Emile Reynaud in 1879,this nineteenth century novelty item was a precursor to modern cinematography. Praxinoscopes used mirrors,as opposed to slits,and were lit by a shaded candle placed at upper centre (not present). Sixteen sequential pictures are rotated on a revolving drum to give the impression of movement | |
