Informations originales sur l'œuvre d'art du musée (© Copyright - Le Metropolitan Museum of Art - Le Metropolitan Museum of Art)

In the 18th and 19th centuries, magic lanterns entertained viewers by projecting images onto a wall or screen (these box-like devices used a mirror to intensify light and direct it through a tranparent image and lens). The London publisher Rudolph Ackermann produced specially treated prints for use in magic lanterns and this example represents the first stage of such an image. Etched lines, based on a drawing by Rowlandson, have established the design. Next tone would have be added to the printing plate and the resulting images hand-colored and oiled. A finished colored example is in the British Museum.
