Synopsis
"A series of admirable living pictures, posed by competent artists, and faithfully representing well-known art masterpieces, notably the works of Sarony. At the opening of each picture, curtains are thrown aside by two pages, the picture remains for a short interval in complete repose, and the curtains are drawn. In other words, these living pictures are shown exactly as in first-class vaudeville theatres, and were prepared with equal care." Series was finished by 1903 and the films were shown as one presentation.
