The Poor Man's Picture Gallery

Stereoscopy versus paintings in the Victorian Era

  • 1 Want to read

Third book in a series about 19th century 3-D Stereoscopic photographs, this one centers on literal works of art - how museum paintings inspired a vast array of stereoscope cards and how the cards themselves influenced various mediums of art.

Beginning with this book, the series becomes Wikipedic, with references and footnotes listed at the end of each chapter.
