ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for replicating a volume hologram having an image of a scattering object recorded therein according to a hologram replicating technique, wherein the diffraction 13 of an unnecessary order of light due to zero-order light, etc. arising from regular reflection and a visual range capable of viewing a recorded image is limited to a desired range .alpha., so that the image can be displayed more brightly than would be possible with the original hologram plate, and a volume hologram as well. When replicating a volume hologram 4' having an image O' of a scattering body recorded therein, replicating illumination light is incident on the volume hologram 4' at an angle of incidence I.sub.1 at which a group of fringes can be replicated and recorded, said group of fringes being such that, in the vicinity of an apex defined by a supposed slant angle S.sub.g at which a replicated hologram 4' can be viewed at a supposed viewing center angle .phi. within a range .alpha. upon illumination with illumination light 7 at a supposed illumination angle .theta., a recording degree of said group of fringes becomes weaker at a position farther away from said slant angle S.sub.g.
