Description: | A hand-painted magic lantern slide depicting Fingal's Cave in Scotland, by an unknown artist, c. 1860, and shown at the Royal Polytechnic Institution, London. The slide shows a view from inside the cave on the island of Staffa in the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. The cave is formed from hexagonal stone columns, created by cooling lava, similar to those of the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Subjects: | lantern slide | Temporal: | c. 1860 | Source: | Science Museum | Creator: | Unknown artist | Identifier: | 1951-307/3 | Go to resource |
