Gezicht op Lyon c. 1855 - 1865

"Gezicht op Lyon" (View of Lyon) is a stereoscopic photograph by Fourvières, taken sometime between 1855 and 1865. The image captures a panoramic view of the city of Lyon, France, with a river winding through the cityscape. The photograph uses the stereoscopic technique, presenting two slightly different perspectives of the same scene, creating the illusion of depth when viewed through a stereoscope. This type of photography was popular in the 19th century, offering viewers a realistic glimpse into distant locations.
