Witte Kwikstaart op stok voor nest c. 1870 - 1940

"Witte Kwikstaart op stok voor nest" (White Wagtail on a perch in front of a nest) is a stereoscopic photograph by Dutch photographer Adolphe Burdet, taken between 1870 and 1940. The photograph captures a White Wagtail perched on a stick in front of its nest, providing a glimpse into the bird's natural habitat. Burdet, known for his nature photography, utilized the emerging technology of stereoscopic photography to create an immersive experience for the viewer, allowing them to see the scene in three dimensions. This image, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exemplifies Burdet's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the beauty of the natural world.
