This stereoscopic photograph by Hippolyte Jouvin, a renowned French photographer active from 1825 to 1889, captures the Old Bridge over the Neckar River in Heidelberg, Germany, and the Holy Spirit Church. Taken between 1860 and 1865, the image showcases the bridge's architectural details and the church's towering spire, highlighting the cityscape. The use of stereoscopy creates a three-dimensional effect, enhancing the viewer's perception of the scene and making them feel as if they are standing on the bridge, immersed in the historic German city. The photograph, a prime example of 19th-century photographic documentation, provides a glimpse into the past and allows us to appreciate the architectural beauty of Heidelberg.
