FRANCESCO ALGAROTTI(1712-1764)
Count #Algarotti was a #Venetian polymath, art critic and collector who experimented in optics.
In 1728 he dedicated the use of a #CameraOttica (optic chamber) in one chapter of the his 'Saggio sopra Pittura.'
Two systems of mirrors and a #prism make it more a #CameraOttica than a true Camera Obscura. However, placed in one of the three round corner towers at the end of the 19th century, the #OpticalChamber was created as “a futuristic social game.”

A #CameraOttica can be easily confused with a #CameraObscura. Basically, they are the same in that the ‘Obscura’ projects the #pinhole image for entertainment and the #Ottica (both below) predominately used for drawing-aid purposes.
