Older Than Movies

 

Imagine yourself on the inside of a cylinder, with the walls painted as a single subject in front of you. That's what this panorama is in Wroclaw. You climb a stairway and there's a viewing platform. This is about a battle in Poland's peasant war. 
Originally there were a total of six of these panoramas in the 1890's. This is the only one left. It was transferred out of Lviv after the first world war.
