Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Condition is very good. Some small mark/scratches on the cover sleeve that displays a stereoscopic 3d image. Both the included book and stereoscope/sleeve for stereoscope are in like new condition and never used. "Exploring for the very first time the hidden relationship between paintings and stereoscopic cards in Victorian times." The advent of a new painting by a great artist was big news in the 1850s, but few were able to access and enjoy directly the new works of art. Stereo cards, created by enterprising photographers of the day, reconstructed the scenes and gave an opportunity for the man in the street to enjoy these scenes, in magical life-like 3D. The Poor Man's Picture Gallery contains high-definition printed reproductions of well-known Victorian paintings in the Tate Gallery, and compares them with related stereo cards - photographs of scenes featuring real actors and models, staged to tell the same story as the corresponding paintings, all of which are the subject of an exhibition in the Tate Gallery in 2014. The item, includes a cover sleeve with stereoscopic 3d image, a book containing reproduction of Victorian paintings from the Tate Museum and an unused stereoscope and slides that allows you to compare the paintings with a stereoscopic 3D version.
