HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND CINEMA The 'toy' called taumatropium, described by the British physician dr. John Ayrton Paris (1785-24 December 1856), exploits the phenomenon of image persistence on the retina to amaze the little ones, but also the great ones of the early nineteenth century, completing 'magically' the half images that are on the two sides of a cardboard disc (see the other side in FSNgilardi_52743. jpg). When the lines are rotated quickly with the fingers, the two images seem to merge into one. In the figure above the horse appears the acrobat, in the middle the wig covers the head of the bald, at the bottom of the cage encloses the bird. United Kingdom,1825
