animated stereoviews of old Japan

Filed under: History,Images,Insane — kf6hqc @ 8:13 am

In the late 19th and early 20th century, enigmatic photographer T. Enami (1859-
1929) captured a number of 3D stereoviews depicting life in Meiji-period Japan.

Each stereogram which consists of two pictures was hand tinted as there was
no color photography at the time. Each picture to hand tint was only 1 and 1/2
inches tall. That is pretty tedious and amazing all in one to we here at Admit-one.

Check out the animated versions of the stereograms using the link below.
