Nowhere is Carl Akeley or the Milwaukee Public Museum mentioned in this article. Carl Akeley completed the first habitat diorama in the world in 1890 (the Muskrat Colony), which is still on display at the Milwaukee Public Museum. Primvspilvs 13:28, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Needs a picture of a diorama, especially one using false perspective.

Needs dates of creation, location, dimensions, etc. and present location of Calif State Diorama. This was truely spectacular, representing everything shit up from the Pacific Coast to the Sierra Mountains.

A list of dioramas around the world would be nice also.

I don't think Daguerre's dioramas rotated. As I understand it, the illusion of three-dimensional space was created by shining light through layers of colored, transparent screens, which were viewed through a hole or "tunnel" of black cloth. Unlike panoramas, the images themselves were flat instead of curved.

Accoring to this website (http://www.midleykent.fsnet.co.uk/diorama/Diorama_Wood_1_1.htm ) the paintings were tilted back and forth, and the platform where the audience sat was "a turning saloon as at the Regent's Park". So the Dioramas didn't rotate, but the audience did. Ogg 19:29, 14 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Updating[edit]

I am going to update this page a bit to bring it up to speed with respect to modern hobbyist diorama-making. Regards, DMorpheus (talk) 16:01, 26 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What about having a section on the future of Dioramas via Holographic TV?[edit]

SeeReal's Holographic displays have been compared to interactive Dioramas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.57.117.159 (talk) 12:59, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In my last edit I explained what Daguerre's Diorama was/is. It was not models or stuffed animals in a museum exhibit. Daguerre opened Dioramas in various places using his method. It seems that the people writing the article hitherto have not understood what a Diorama was as invented by Daguerre. RPSM (talk) 15:51, 25 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wyld's Great Globe[edit]

This should be included. It was filled with dioramas, one could argue that it was the biggest diorama ever. See "Wyld's Great Globe." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vynbos (talk • contribs) 11:44, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disappointing wiki definition[edit]

Please forgive me if I have don't use the correct wiki etiquette. I wanted to draw attention to the inadequate and confusing dual definition at the beginning of the diorama Wikipedia. Please use however you wish up to and including deleting my portion of Talk. I respectfully submit this version of Wikipedia:diorama might be the most unacceptable entry in Wikipedia. After reading the wiki twice, I still am unclear what one meaning is ("display" like computer monitor? Lit shadow box? And "19th-century mobile theatre device" tells me nothing. And why not have two separate entries with a disambiguation page like you do for other words with two or more meanings? Thank you

Tatebanko[edit]

Aren't tatebanko and similar cut paper figure scenes also paper dioramas? --Error (talk) 00:51, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Unbalanced representation of artists[edit]

This article is very unbalanced. A few artists are mentioned in details, almost like promotion, while there is a lack of a list of artists nor any systematic discussion of trends or styles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.148.179.21 (talk) 10:55, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
