Naughty but Nice - Victorian Lady Undressed in Stereoscopic Views
Stereoscopic, or 3D photography, was popular from the 1850s to the 1930s. In the late 19th century stereoviews, or stereograph cards, had a wide and varied subject matter. Themes ranged from scientific to picturesque, from historical to humorous, and from risqué to refined. Displayed are images from a collection of stereograph cards by photographer William Rau that depict a "naughty" but humorous side of the late Victorian era. |
