- Description:
- A photograph of the persistent image produced in the retina of the eye by means of the aerial Graphoscope. The camera has been made to retain and unite the various minute portions of a lantern projection which appear in turn on the revolving lath of the Aerial Graphoscope. Thus these photographs Nos. 410, 411, 428 and 429 are obtained of an image which does not exist as a whole before the camera. An exposure of from 10 to 25 minutes was necessary. The Aerial Graphoscope image appearing transparent to the eye, an object placed behind it can be seen through it, and in these photographs such real objects which were actually before the camera are thus shown.
