Summary/Abstract: This essay is not only written to widen the prehistory of cinema with the story of magical illusions. Too often, this type of genealogy was limited to enumerating consecutive technological innovations, suggesting a teleological advance leading to the invention of cinema. I rather hope that I draw the attention of researchers dealing with cinema on the longue durée of visual media and on the complex consonance of technology, spectatorship and visual imagery, so important at the end of the 19th century.
