Gezicht op beeldengroepen in de tuin van Versailles c. 1860 - 1880

This stereoscopic photograph by Ernest Eléonor Pierre Lamy, taken sometime between 1860 and 1880, depicts a view of the sculpted groups in the gardens of Versailles. The image is composed of two photographs taken from slightly different angles and, when viewed through a stereoscope, creates a three-dimensional illusion. The image showcases the detailed artistry of the sculptures and the lush greenery of the gardens, providing a glimpse into the opulence of the French royal court. The use of a stereoscopic photograph is characteristic of the 19th century, allowing viewers to experience a sense of immersion in the scene.
