The modern digitisation of this particular manuscript has turned these illustrations into a ‘flip book of the Middle Ages’.
Motion is conveyed because each image depicts every step of the poem's story and, are successive, giving the appearance of a series of film frames. https://t.co/ynkQF8yi7o
A special feature of these drawings is their modern narrative character and the richness of detail. The fight scenes in particular appear like short cartoons.

Another curiosity I found in the ‘post cinema’ category is this little story on a child’s toy called a ‘Projector Pistol’.
The story pretty much explains how the child operates it. -30- https://t.co/SF97TcZpGi

KALEIDOPHONE
SIR CHARLES WHEATSTONE (1802-1875)
