More from the comments

Excellent episode of the Omnibus podcast in which very, very large oil paintings become the 19th-century precursor of the modern movie theater

The Omnibus podcast had a great episode about it: https://www.omnibusproject.com/194

this was covered just a few days ago on the "Omnibus!" podcast (which I would recommend)
