A stationary camera looks across a busy corner toward a store front marked "The Divan." The words "des fees" are beneath. A cortege of Arabs, about 20 persons in the party, walk past; the dignitaries are in front, attended by men with horns and drums. Coming in the other direction are local Swiss, who pay little attention, and a group of native-garbed Africans. The dozen or so well-dressed denizens of Geneva who are sitting on the steps of the Divan take it all in. close

The author of this unique art project presents to the audience the paintings of his favorite painters of the XIX century. A panorama of artistic trends and tastes of this time will take place before us, amazing fates of artists and their heroes, the history of creating masterpieces of Russian painting will appear, a three-dimensional picture of Russian culture, especially picturesque. Thanks to a deeply personal, interested presentation of material, lively, direct intonation, the paintings of talented Russian artists will come so close to us that we will be able to hear the "music of Russian painting", to understand what was hidden from us by our, often superficial, momentary perception. And as a result, feel a sense of graceful familiarity with the unique heritage of your great country and proud awareness of yourself as a part of its great people and history!

This picture was taken at one of the curves on the Lehigh Valley Railroad, along the beautiful Susquehanna River. The train is seen rapidly approaching in the distance, clearly outlined against the grey mountains. Smoke can be seen pouring in volumes from the stack of the locomotive, and as the train approaches closely, she sounds a whistle, warning some section men, who are working on the tracks in the foreground. As she rushes by the camera, the swing motion of the train gives a vivid idea of the lightning speed at which she is traveling. (Edison film catalog) close

During the Alaska gold rush, one way to reach the Klondike was over the Chilkoot Pass. A stationary camera is placed to see a ways down the curving trail. A pack train comes into view and passes in front of us, led by a man on horseback. Eight loaded mules follow, then another cowboy on horseback and a man walking, then eight more laden mules, another cowboy, then nine more mules, a cowboy, and still the pack train stretches as far as the eye can see. A solitary man watches from atop a hillock. (IMDb) close
