I just had to look this up - a wooden AND horizontal enlarger?

After checking out the image, it looks like it would have originally been illuminated by a candle or oil lamp or something similar?
I wonder how long the exposures would have been, what with the slow speed of emulsions as well?
Sorry for going slightly off topic...
