Just read an interesting history by

Roger Cicala: Imaging Before Photography, Part III -- The Showman and the Sheriff (https://www.dpreview.com/articles/7005893639/roger-cicala-imaging-before-photography-part-iii-the-showman-and-the-sheriff?ref_=pe_1822230_601493900_dpr_nl_492_9)

That was a fun read, thank you. Most of it wasn't new to me, but my background knowledge was far more superficial and a great deal less colourful!
I also had an almost entirely incorrect idea of what a diorama entailed until reading that article. They sound fantastic - in every sense of the word!
