アナログカメラオークション (1840-1900)

19世紀のマジックミラー。原典の中国の魔鏡は少なくとも5世紀にさかのぼると言われている。鏡は固体の青銅で作られており、正面は研磨されて鏡として使うことができる。一方、裏面には青銅に彫刻された図案がある。日光やほかの強い光が鏡に当たると、鏡が透明に見えるとされる。その光が鏡から壁へ反射すると、壁に裏面の模様が投影されると考えられている。

Nineteen century Magic Mirror. The original Chinese magic mirrors tracing back to at least the 5th century., The mirrors were made out of solid bronze. The front was polished and could be used as a mirror, while the back has a design cast in the bronze. It is said that when sunlight or other bright light shines onto the mirror, the mirror appears to become transparent. If that light is reflected from the mirror on to a wall, it is supposed that the pattern on the back of the mirror is then projected onto the wall.
