There’s limited documentation on a specific Ombrascope device from exactly 1820, but the term aligns with the period’s interest in #Shadowgraphy and optical curiosities, as seen in later references to #Umbromania in the 1880s.
As this image shows, this simple #precinema #opticaltoy offers a shadow of white onto the wall. These very early #Victorianera toys were first seen around 1820.
The Ombrascope had many names;
🎬 Ombrascopes
🎬#WhiteShadows
🎬#Shadowscopes
🎬Umbromania refers to a shadow craze

OMBRASCOPES AND WHITE SHADOWS
The #Ombrascope falls within a multitude of Victorian pre cinema optical toys closely related to #ShadowPuppetry. So much so they could be kissing cousins.

In the early 1800s, such devices were typically used in domestic settings or small gatherings to cast silhouettes or shadow figures onto a surface, often using candlelight or early oil lamps. They were part of the broader fascination with optics and visual effects during the #Regencyperiod, aligning with the development of other pre cinematic technologies.
For example, Shadow Plays or ‘ombres chinoises’ (Chinese shadows) were popular in Europe, and an Ombrascope might have been a specific tool or toy marketed for creating very similar effects, possibly involving cutout figures or translucent cards.
#Shadowgraphy or as it’s sometimes known, #Ombromanie, is the art of performing pre cinema motion story-telling using images made by projected hand shadows.
It was also called cinema in silhouette. Performers are titled as a #Shadowgraphiste or #Shadowgraphers.

Félicien (Treuwe Anglicised as Trewey) was a magician who died at the age of 72; the same year his book ‘The Art of ‘Shadowgraphy: How it is Done’ was published.
Body Shadows slowly made their way into France and were incorporated into the Seraphin shows, to a slightly lesser extent.
The Body Shadow is an #interaction between the full body and the #lighting. This is separate from #Shadowgraphy or #Ombromanie or hand shadow puppets.

So I showed you the #CFD and #PIV results of the flow around the bubble. But #ParticleImageVelocimetry does not give me a good idea of the shape of the bubble during its ascent. So let's look at #shadowgraphy results of the same bubble
