This stereoscopic photograph by Hippolyte Jouvin captures the Stadspoort in Aachen, Germany, in 1864. The image showcases the historic gateway, framed by lush trees, offering a glimpse into the architectural and urban landscape of 19th-century Germany. Jouvin, a renowned French photographer, specialized in stereoscopic photography, creating a 3D effect by capturing the same scene from two slightly different angles. This technique, popular in the 19th century, allowed viewers to experience a sense of depth and realism, transporting them to the streets of Aachen.
