Sculptuur van een strijdwagen met twee paarden in de Vaticaanse Musea c. 1860 - 1880

This stereoscopic photograph, created by Giorgio Sommer between 1860 and 1880, depicts a sculpture of a chariot pulled by two rearing horses. The image, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Sommer’s talent for capturing the intricate details of ancient Roman art. The use of stereoscopic photography, a technique that creates the illusion of depth, enhances the viewer’s experience and allows for a more immersive understanding of the sculpture's form. The photograph highlights the craftsmanship of the original sculpture, evident in the detailed rendering of the horses' musculature and the chariot's intricate design.
