Restanten van het Huis van de Faun, Pompeï 1861 - 1878

This stereoscopic photograph "Restanten van het Huis van de Faun, Pompeï" by Ernest Eléonor Pierre Lamy, created between 1861 and 1878, captures the ruins of the House of the Faun in Pompeii. The photograph, which is a stereographic view, presents two images side by side, creating a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a stereoscope. This particular image shows a courtyard of the House of the Faun with two figures standing in the foreground, adding a human element to the otherwise desolate scene. This work is a testament to Lamy's documentation of archaeological sites in the 19th century and offers a unique glimpse into the past.
