"Poort in Tunis" is a stereoscopic photograph, created sometime between 1855 and 1875 by an anonymous artist. The photograph captures a narrow passageway leading to a stone arch bridge over a flowing stream, possibly a depiction of a traditional gate or "poort" in the city of Tunis. The image is reminiscent of early photographic documentation of architectural and urban landscapes, common in the 19th century. The stereoscopic nature of the image allows viewers to experience a sense of depth and perspective. This piece offers a glimpse into the historic architecture and urban landscape of Tunis during the mid to late 19th century.
