"The Witches' Rock, on the Tilt" is a stereoscopic photograph by Scottish photographer G. W. Wilson from the mid-19th century. This image, currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, captures a picturesque scene of a river winding through a wooded landscape, with a prominent rock formation in the foreground. Wilson, known for his landscapes and particularly his stereoscopic work, showcases the beauty of the Scottish countryside through the captivating three-dimensional effect of this photographic technique. Stereoscopic photographs, like this one, create a sense of depth and realism, inviting viewers to experience the scene as if they were standing right there.
