ANTINOUS WAS PHOTOGRAPHED IN 3-D
FOR VICTORIAN ARMCHAIR TRAVELERS



I found this old stereoview with Antinous. 

It is from the Louvre Museum and is dated 1860 on the back of the card. The image shows the Antinous-Aristaeus statue.

Stereoviews are designed to be seen through a stereoscope, which I do not have but am tempted to purchase. 

When looking through the scope it produces "3-D" version of the image. 

It is amazing to think how many hands held this image and were able to see the glory of Antinous.
