| Description | Antique perspective print of the interior of St. Martin Church in London. This print was specially prepared for viewing with an 'illuminating optica' machine, which has a lens but no mirror. The print was first glued on to stiff card, and holes were cut out of those sections where the building had windows. On reverse yellow colored paper was glued. In front of and behind the view candles were lit, giving to the whole a magical quality. |
