Cinematograph

Introduction
The word Cinematograph is derived ancient Greek and means 'writing in movement'. In 1895 the French brother Lumiere invented their 'Cinematographe'. On 28 December 1895 the brothers Lumiere gave their first commercial public screening of cinematographic films in Paris and this had made them famous. With their machine they traveled all over the world, including India en China. People of different social classes could enjoy the moving pictures.

The Cinematograph works with a handcrank and a long strip of film. The film is inserted on top of the cinematograph. By moving the crank, the film moved in front of a lens. With help of a light source at the back of the machine, the films where projected on a big screen of 16 by 22 meters.
