"Grasveld met bomen en op de achtergrond de Alpen" (Grass Field with Trees and the Alps in the Background), a stereoscopic photograph by Achille Quinet, depicts a peaceful landscape scene. Taken sometime between 1860 and 1880, the image captures a verdant field with trees in the foreground and a distant view of the snow-capped Alps. The stereoscopic effect adds depth and realism to the composition, enhancing the viewer's experience of the tranquil scene. This photograph, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Quinet's fascination with nature and landscape photography, making it a valuable document of 19th-century artistic practices.
