EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical leaflet advertising the Lumiere Cinematograph, an engraving from the 19th century. The image is part of a private collection and captures a significant moment in cinema history. The leaflet advertises the Lumiere Cinematograph, which was responsible for pioneering the world's first screening before a paying audience. On that groundbreaking day, February 20th, 1896, at the Regent Street Polytechnic, this revolutionary invention brought moving images to life on screen for mesmerized viewers. The engraving itself exudes an air of nostalgia as it transports us back to that pivotal moment in time when cinema was still in its infancy. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our insatiable thirst for entertainment. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can almost feel the excitement and anticipation that must have filled the air during those early film screenings. This leaflet represents not only an advertisement but also a window into an era where movies were just beginning to captivate audiences worldwide. Let us cherish this snapshot from our past; it reminds us of how far we have come since those humble beginnings while celebrating the magic of cinema that continues to enchant us today.
