Gezicht op het Rigi-Kulmhotel op de Rigi c. 1850 - 1880

Florentin Charnaux's "Gezicht op het Rigi-Kulmhotel op de Rigi," a stereoscopic photograph from the mid-19th century, captures the Rigi Kulmhotel in Switzerland. The image shows a stark, black and white view of the hotel nestled in a hillside. Charnaux, a Swiss photographer known for his landscape and architectural photographs, utilizes the unique perspective of stereoscopy to provide viewers with a three-dimensional sense of depth. This photograph, a popular genre in the late 19th century, offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the architectural details and surrounding landscape of the hotel in its early days.
