This stereoscopic photograph by Adolphe Block captures the Greek Pavilion and the Rue des Nations at the 1878 World's Fair in Paris. The image showcases the ornate architecture of the pavilion, a testament to the neoclassical revival style popular at the time. The Rue des Nations, lined with similar pavilions representing various countries, evokes the international spirit of the exhibition. This photograph, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and spectacle of 19th-century world fairs, a key event in the history of art and architecture.
