"Tempel van Athena in Paestum" is a stereoscopic photograph by Ernest Eléonor Pierre Lamy created between 1861 and 1878. The image depicts the ancient Greek Temple of Ceres in Paestum, Italy. The stereoscopic effect creates a three-dimensional illusion of the ruins, showcasing the temple's grandeur and its impressive colonnade. Lamy's work captures the enduring beauty of classical architecture, inviting viewers to imagine the temple's past glory and the lives of the people who once walked its grounds.
