Gezicht op een deel van het maanoppervlak Possibly 1890 - 1893

"Gezicht op een deel van het maanoppervlak" (View of a part of the moon's surface) is a black and white photograph by M. Henry. Taken in 1890, the image depicts a detailed view of the moon’s surface. The photo shows a close-up of a crater-ridden landscape. While this photograph might not be a work of art in the traditional sense, it's a remarkable example of early astrophotography. Henry captured the rugged lunar landscape with a level of detail that would have been impossible without technological advancements of the time. This photograph is a testament to the early stages of capturing celestial objects and contributed to our understanding of the moon's surface.
