Camille Silvy ran a portrait studio in London producing cartes-de-visite , the small, calling card-sized photographs invented by André Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri in 1854. His photographs often featured the main subject surrounded by an assortment of obscure props and dramatic backdrops. The touch screen interactive allows users to recreate Silvy's process and design their own digital cartes-de-visite to email to their friends and family. Complete with a replica sepia fade, a choice of alpine ranges, regal staircases and dragable ships, cockerels and dogs the emphasis focused on the balance of education and fun and allows a range of users to experience the theater of the Silvy legend.
