This stereoscopic photograph by Achille Quinet captures a meandering river flowing through a lush, wooded valley. The image, dating from circa 1860-1880, likely depicts a scene from the Italian Alps, as suggested by the rocky landscape and the architecture in the background. The composition of the photograph utilizes the unique format of stereoscopic photography, creating a three-dimensional effect for the viewer. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the natural beauty of the Italian landscape in the 19th century.
