Isaac Hollis's 1861 photograph "Fontein op het Isle of Wight, Engeland" is a stereoscopic image, presenting two near-identical views of a fountain in a natural setting. The fountain shoots a tall, thin stream of water upwards, framed by lush greenery and a small, still pond. The image showcases the early use of photography for capturing landscapes and natural phenomena, offering a glimpse into the Isle of Wight's beauty during the 19th century. This type of photograph was popular amongst Victorian audiences, allowing them to experience distant locales through the wonders of stereoscopic viewing.
