Lumière Brothers – The Serpentine Dance (c.1899)

October 1, 2009 by Fosco Lucarelli Leave a Comment

Shot and hand-colored – frame by frame – at the end of the 19th Century. Still captivating today, but just imagine what it must have been like to watch an image move and transform like this in 1899! A beautiful example of the earliest cinematic art.
