Kunstmatige waterval in het parc français tijdens de Wereldtentoonstelling van 1867 1867

This stereoscopic photograph, "Kunstmatige waterval in het parc français tijdens de Wereldtentoonstelling van 1867," by Léon & Lévy, captures a man-made waterfall in the French Park at the 1867 World Exhibition in Paris. The image showcases the artificiality of the waterfall, a popular attraction at world fairs, and provides a glimpse into the exhibition's architectural and landscape design. The stereoscopic effect, achieved through the use of two slightly offset images, creates a three-dimensional illusion that enhances the viewer's experience of the scene. The photograph stands as a historical document capturing a specific moment in time and offering insights into the visual culture of the 19th century.
