"Gezicht op Bad Ems, Duitsland" (View of Bad Ems, Germany), a stereoscopic photograph taken by Johann Friedrich Stiehm between 1869 and 1872, offers a captivating aerial perspective of the town. The image showcases the Lahn river winding through Bad Ems, Germany, with the town's architecture and surrounding hills visible in the background. Stiehm's work exemplifies the popularity of stereoscopic photography in the late 19th century, which created the illusion of depth and realism for viewers. This particular photograph, with its clear detail and striking composition, reveals Stiehm's skill in capturing the beauty of German landscapes.
