This image of Margaret Severn is from a fractured glass lantern slide. Lantern slides are positive glass transparencies made for projection. Genthe used these "magic lantern slides" for lectures. |

In 1908, Genthe traveled to Japan and Korea. Although the majority of the Genthe collection lantern slides are black-and- white, eight hand-colored images have survived. This hand-colored lantern slide shows a temple on the island of Hokkaido. |
