| 词汇 | diorama |
| 词源 | diorama; photography. Invented in 1822 by Louis Daguerre (1787–1851), who later invented the daguerreotype, the first permanent photographic process that really worked, the diora- ma is a scene, often in miniature, reproduced in three dimen- sions. The French inventor probably patterned the word on panorama, which comes from the Greek (h)orama, view. The word photography was coined from Daguerre’s photogenic drawing process plus his heliographic system. |
