RE: Pre-order - 'Diableries, Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell'

Dear David,

Dear list members,

 

That’s great, can I use some of your diablerie slides on my webpage on diableries? http://www.visual-media.eu/diableries.html

This is most interesting to show to all visitors of Early Visual Media..

 

The interest in diableries is growing in a vast manner, especially because of the coming book by Denis Pellerin, Brian May & Paula Fleming.

 

This sounds as the right moment to ask all members of the Visual Media GOOGLE group and visitors of Visual Media.

Who has stereo diableries in his collection (stereo cards or other versions such as magic lantern slides)

 

An upload of your images to the group would be wonderful.

Or those who prefer not to show their images to the whole group please contact me on this address thomas@visual-media.eu.

 

A few known diablerie titles where never discovered, if would be great if this should happen with help of the group members.

I’m sure the authors of ‘Diableries, Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell’, Denis Pellerin, Brian May & Paula Fleming will be most thankful for your find.

 

Follow links to pre-order your copy of this great book.

Hi David,

 

Indeed, the Cinémathèque Française, Paris, has a wonderful set of colored magic lantern slide diableries.

If I’m not mistaken, they have the complete Block series (A-series) in this version for projection. Really wonderful.

 

I’m curious to see (and I guess other list members too) your magic lantern slide diableries, are they colored or black & white?

I would love to see some samples from your collection, perhaps you have digital images of them?

Slide diableries very rare to find!

 

Good Heaven, I would love to find some of these images from Hell too J

 

I’m sure they can be very well used in a magic lantern show …

 

Best greetings,

 

Thomas

Hello Thomas

 

Some of the diablerie images were made as magic lantern slides too, though it is hard to know quite how to use them in a show. We included them in a Hallowe'en show on one occasion. Maybe they could be used with the Danse Macabre music.

 

Regards

Dear List members,

The best photo book from Hell is now available for pre-order online.

 

Diableries are an intriguing set of 19th. century humorous, satirical and political inspired 3-D photographs. These albumin stereo prints depict daily life in hell, a world inhabited by male skeletons and demons, often in contrast with provocative and surprisingly realistic women modeled in clay. Many of the images show political critique and satire on the Napoleonic regime.

Goto Visual Media to read a detailed review:

Allegiance to the Devil, even a book choice disclosing these rare stereo-photographs can be misleading. Two new titles on the subject are announced for 2013, however only one is worth to purchase or even look at. A detailed comparison of both publications clearly distinguish the work of the thorough researcher from “The work of Satan”, so to speak. Read why http://www.visual-media.eu/publications_books_photo.html

‘Diableries, Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell’
The review is based on a exclusive pre-publication preview of this forthcoming title announced for Halloween 2013.

Obviously, the only right choice is the forthcoming ‘Diableries, Stereoscopic Adventures in Hell’ by Denis Pellerin, Brian May and Paula Fleming.
Firstly because this book is based on more than a decade academic research by an established French photo historian & collector, Denis Pellerin. As a result, the important hidden meanings of these satirical images are explained for the majority of these 180 scenes from Hell. Pellerin has written several books and articles on 19th. century stereo photography and currently works on his PHD. For further details see the review.

 

All best,

 

Thomas
