Gezicht over de Seine en de Pont des Arts in Parijs c. 1855 - 1865

This stereoscopic photograph, created by F. Chevalier & A. Champeaux around 1855-1865, captures a picturesque view of the Seine River and the Pont des Arts in Paris. The image showcases the architectural beauty of the bridge, with its graceful archway spanning the river, and the surrounding cityscape. The use of stereoscopy, a technique that creates the illusion of depth, enhances the viewer's experience, allowing them to feel as if they are standing on the banks of the Seine, immersed in the Parisian scenery. The photograph, a prime example of 19th-century photographic art, offers a glimpse into the history and charm of the French capital.
