Marble Canyon Colorado River Stereoview c1865 Bucksin Falls Antique Photo C655

Description: "Marble Canon, from Buckskin Falls, Opposite Walls 4,500 Ft. High" Published by Charles Warren Woodward (1836-1894). Woodward began his career as a picture frame maker and a dealer of fine arts before becoming one of the most prominent stereoview publishers of the 1870s. Over the course of Woodward's life, he had parts in several stereoview-related businesses, including Rochester Picture Frame Depot, Union View Company, Woodward and Albee, and Woodward Stereoscopic Company. In his later years, Woodward was a travelling salesman of fine arts. This is a stereoview (also known as a stereograph or stereoscope card). It was one of the first forms of 3D photography. The images were captured with a special stereoscopic camera, which had two lenses - simulating the view of our left and right eyes. The two, nearly identical pictures were then mounted next to each other (most commonly on a piece of cardstock, glued on as photographs or printed as lithographs). The image could then be seen in three dimensions when viewed through a device known as a stereoscope, stereopticon, and/or televiewer. Standard-size stereograph, measuring about 3.5 x 7 inches. Will be shipped safely and securely! All items are protected in archival sleeves and packaged in rigid cardstock.
