An overview of the Girona Cinema Museum’s collections and the latest acquisition: the Diaphanorama, a forerunner of 3D.

In the first part of our talk, we will briefly present the Girona Cinema Museum, its history and services, and we will focus on describing the main collections it preserves and exhibits, including the Tomàs Mallol Collection and the Vicenç Arroyo Collection. The second part will be dedicated specifically to the latest acquisition by the Cinema Museum. This is a very rare and special type of painting called Diaphanorama. The Diaphanorama is a painting technique on glass that tries to create a three-dimensional image, representing it on three or more different and superimposed pieces of glasses. Diaphanorama is a technique that appeared in the middle of the 18th century in the countries of northern Europe. Some studies say that only about 120 diaphanoramas are preserved. The Diaphanorama acquired by the Cinema Museum has been described as “the Dutch school” and specifically related to the artist Andries Vermeulen or his workshop. A date is set around 1780.
