Reviews
"The book is written by Brian May, the Queen guitarist (who has a doctorate in astrophysics and is a lifelong stereo photography collector), Denis Pellerin, and Paula Fleming. It contains detailed context for each Diablerie, explaining political references, pointing out jokes and illustrating technical accomplishments. The images were created by photographing hand-sculpted scenes. They look sepia-toned in daylight and fill with color when backlighted, which is particularly frightening when the eyes of the damned glow red as the green devil parades by." -- Los Angeles Times , October 23, 2013, "Who says dinosaur rockers can't raise hell? In the poshly published Diableries, Brian May...shares his long-standing passion for 19th-century stereopticon images. He bought his first pair of these 3-D cards over 40 years ago from a psychedelia vendor at Portobello Road Market in London. In this...complete set of a phantasmic French stereopticon series from the 1860s, skeletons enact an elaborate danse macabre. Curiously, Satan bears a striking resemblance to King Louis Philippe." -- Wall Street Journal Holiday Gift Guide , November 23, 2013
Edition Description
Illustrated edition
Synopsis
In France, around 1860, from the loins of a traditional national fascination with all things diabolical, was born a new sensation - a series of visionary dioramas depicting life in a strange parallel universe called ENFER - Hell - communicated to an eager audience by means of stereoscopic cards, to be viewed in the stereoscopes which had already become popular in the 1850s. This 3-D phenomenon, which fascinated a nation for 40 years, is yours to share.This book, the fruit of half a lifetime's study by three impas- sioned authors, brings every single one of the published Diableries into the 21st Century for the very first time. Some of them are so rare that at the time of writing there is no known full collection of the originals of these masterpieces. Using the LITE OWL 3-D viewer supplied in this package the scenes can be enjoyed again just as their creators intended, in magnificent 3-D.In the first edition of this book, published in 2012, there were two stereo cards missing from the Diableries series! In 2018, after a worldwide search, finally the last card was found, and is published for the very first time in this new edition of Diableres, along with the story of its discovery.The final dimension in this unique study is the original research, which unearths the hidden meanings in these tableaux. Never before have these secrets been revealed - clues to the conflicts in France in a period of great unrest, suffering, shame and suppression - a period which, even in French schools is seldom part of the curriculum. TheDiableries are impudent, funny, sad, riotously inventive, satirical and dangerously seditious. Their wickedness awaits you., Revised to include every card in the rare series, this 3-D cult classic provides a unique satirical look at an 1860s view of Hell -- the French state under the tyrannical rule of Napoleon III. Thanks to Dr. Brian May's imagination and his determination to share the wonders of these strange cards, thousands of readers have escaped the boundary of Earthly tedium Diableries transports them to a nightmarish netherworld inhabited by devils and skeletons in the nicest possible way, of course The amazing 3-D cards show scenes of torture, fire, and every variety of licentious behavior, with scantily clad ladies of the demi-monde and the devil himself encouraging the participants' worst intentions. After five years of searching, Dr. Brian May and his coauthors were able to find the one card, entitled La Cuve or The Barrel, missing from the initial publication of the book. These remarkable scenes were initially sculpted in clay, mostly by two leading French sculptors, Pierre Hennetier and Louis Habert, who daringly satirized Napoleon and his cohorts at great personal risk. These extremely detailed scenes, that allegorically critiqued daily events in a France where news was censored, were created and then photographed with a stereo camera to be viewed with a stereoscope. Their unique construction causes the demons' eyes to glow when held to the light., In France, around 1860, from the loins of a traditional national fascination with all things diabolical, was born a new sensation - a series of visionary dioramas depicting life in a strange parallel universe called ENFER - Hell - communicated to an eager audience by means of stereoscopic cards, to be viewed in the stereoscopes which had already ......, Revised to include every card in the rare series, this 3-D cult classic provides a unique satirical look at an 1860s view of Hell -- the French state under the tyrannical rule of Napoleon III.
