By the early 1890s, French brothers Louis and Auguste Lumière had built their family business into the biggest manufacturers of photographic plates in Europe. Inspired by an exhibition of the Kinetoscope, a primitive motion-picture projector invented in 1892 by Thomas Edison and William Dickson, the Lumière brothers began trying to figure out how to combine film recording and projection into a single device. In 1895, Louis Lumière came up with the solution.

After his father, Antoine, a well-known portrait painter turned photographer, opened a small business in photographic plates based in Lyons, Louis Lumière began experimenting with the equipment his father was manufacturing. In 1881, 17-year-old Louis invented a new “dry plate” process of developing film, which boosted his father’s business enough to fuel the opening of a new factory in the Lyons suburbs. By 1894, the Lumières were producing some 15 million plates a year.

That year, Antoine Lumière attended an exhibition of Edison’s Kinetoscope in Paris. Upon his return to Lyons, he showed his sons a length of film he had received from one of Edison’s concessionaires; he also told them they should try to develop a cheaper alternative to the peephole film-viewing device and its bulky camera counterpart, the Kinetograph. While the Kinetoscope could only show a motion picture to one individual viewer, Antoine urged Auguste and Louis to work on a way to project film onto a screen, where many people could view it at the same time.
