Kokmeeuw broedend op nest c. 1870 - 1940

This stereoscopic image, "Kokmeeuw broedend op nest" (c. 1870-1940) by Dutch artist Adolphe Burdet, depicts a black-headed gull on its nest. The image is presented in a format popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, creating a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a stereoscope. Burdet, known for his nature photography, captured the bird in its natural habitat, offering viewers a glimpse into the avian world. The photograph is a striking example of the use of stereoscopy to showcase natural history.
