Warsaw, Then and Now (1934)
The album with reproductions of Canaletto's paintings, viewed by a little girl, is an opportunity to travel into the past and compare the contemporary appearance of Warsaw's corners with the 18th century paintings. The film impression 'Warszawa dawna i dzisiejsza' is one of several films by Ryszard Biske on Warsaw from past centuries, made in the mid-1930s. Through the use of trick photography and multiple exposures, we see ghostly figures from the time of Stanislaw Augustus walking around the palace and park in the Royal Baths Park.
