Publisher's Synopsis
The Conway In The Stereoscope is a book written by Roger Fenton in 1860. It is a collection of stereoscopic photographs of the River Conway in North Wales. Stereoscopic photography is a technique that creates a three-dimensional image by taking two photographs of the same scene from slightly different angles and then viewing them through a special device called a stereoscope. The book contains 20 pairs of stereoscopic images, each pair showing a different view of the River Conway and its surroundings. The images are accompanied by descriptive text that provides information about the locations and landmarks depicted in the photographs. The River Conway is a popular tourist destination in North Wales, known for its scenic beauty and historic landmarks such as the Conway Castle and the Suspension Bridge. Fenton's photographs capture the natural beauty of the river and its surroundings, as well as the man-made structures that have become iconic symbols of the area. The Conway In The Stereoscope is a valuable historical document that provides a glimpse into the past and the way people experienced and appreciated the natural world. It is also a testament to the artistry and technical skill of early photographers like Roger Fenton, who helped to pioneer the field of stereoscopic photography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
