IMMORTAL NATURE'S AGELESS HARMONY

The Botanical Lantern Slides of William Copeland McCalla.

Glass lantern slides were developed in 1849 to be projected onto a wall or screen so that photographic images could be viewed by a larger audience.

McCalla photographed the images for his black and white glass lantern slides which he then hand-coloured. The exhibit showcases a selection of McCalla's images from the Provincial Archives of Alberta's collection.

Through the end of July.
