This anonymous stereoscopic photograph, titled "Untitled", depicts a view of the United States Treasury Building in Washington, D.C. The image was created between 1875 and 1899, capturing the building's grand Neoclassical architecture and surrounding grounds. The stereoscopic format, popular in the 19th century, presents two nearly identical images side-by-side, creating a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a stereoscope. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of the U.S. Treasury Building, showcasing its imposing presence in the nation's capital.
