HENRY LANGDON CHILDE (1781-1874)
Childe attempted his #DissolvingViews by placing different sources of light behind various painted glass plates.
By diminishing the light as one scene was changed to the other, #Childe was able to project an animated transition.
The Royal Polytechnic Institution presented fabulous shows like spectacular #dissolvingviews. It closed in 1876 and its slides were auctioned off in 1882 for £900. As 'Magic Lanterns' were purchased by the public, people could create lantern shows for themselves at home. -30-

On 16 January, 1847, Ludwig Döbler delivered his first public showing of stroboscopic moving pictures at the Josephstadt Theatre Vienna. #Dissolvingviews and #chromatropes were a large part of his performance. Below is Doblergasse (street) in Vienna named after Döbler.
Döbler’s #Phantaskop had 12 lenses each projecting its own sequenced images providing a depiction of modest motion. Two core lenses rotated by a crank directed limelight illumination at each of the 12 lenses successively. Austria honoured Döbler with a postage stamp.
