About this Item
Description:
Technic: Copper print, colorit: original colored, condition: Very good, size (in cm): 25 x 38,5 cm cm; - View shows a district of Mexico City with a "view optique" a zograscope, which is an optical device for enhancing the sense of depth perception from a flat picture. It consists of a large magnifying lens through which the picture is viewed. Some models have the lens mounted on a stand in front of an angled mirror. This allows someone to sit at a table and to look through the lens at the picture flat on the table. Pictures viewed in this way need to be left-right reversed; this is obvious in the case of writing. A print made for this purpose is called a vue d'optique or perspective view.
