  Thomas -"Making Visible: The Diorama, the Double and the (Gothic) Subject"- Gothic Technologies: Visuality ...
This "performance" (for it emphasized the status of the Diorama as hybrid of painting and theatre) was accompanied by the sounds of goats' bells, the blowing of an Alp-horn, and local song; meanwhile, girls in peasant dress served the audience a country breakfast.
The Diorama was clearly held to have a certain aesthetic integrity that sensationalism undermined; or, to put it differently, attempts to complete or augment the illusion (this could extend as much to music and other sound effects as well as to the mechanical introduction of motion) tended to emphasize, and thus detract from it.
In the case of the Diorama, this is clearly a function of its status as a hybrid of painting and theatre, or as a strange combination perhaps of tableau vivant and still-life.

The inventor and proprietor of the Diorama was Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre (1787 – 1851) was formerly a decorator, manufacturer of mirrors, painter of Panoramas, and masterly designer and painter of theatrical stage illusions.
Miniature dioramas are used to represent scenes from historic events (e.g., tin soldiers arranged in a display depicting a famous battle).
A typical example of this type are the dioramas to be seen at the Norges Hjemmefrontmuseum (Norwegian Resistance Museum) in Oslo, Norway.

 Daguerre and his Diorama in Paris in the 1830s
During the first period of the Diorama in Paris from 1822 to 1830 there were shown ten tableau by Daguerre and the same number by Bouton [3].
The progress of the Diorama in Paris was marked first by Daguerre's formation of a partnership with Bouton on 25 April 1821, followed by an Agreement with a company of Shareholders dated 3 January 1822, although the details of the latter contract remain unknown.
Daguerre later alleged that three of the earlier ‘simple-effect’ dioramas could be done in one year, but this does not accord with the number actually produced by himself and Bouton: it was probably a convenient argument to bolster the insured value of the ‘double-effect’ dioramas.
