The London Stereoscopic Company, located on Regent Street, was a pioneer in the world of stereoscopic photography. Established around 1854, this renowned company played a significant role in shaping the way people viewed and experienced images. One captivating photograph from their collection showcases the head office of The London Stereoscopic Company itself. Taken circa 1910, this black and white photo transports us back in time to witness the grandeur of their establishment. It stands as a testament to their success and influence within the industry. Another remarkable creation by this esteemed company is an image featuring Major-General Walter Kitchener captured in 1902. Through their lens, they immortalized his distinguished presence for generations to come. Delving further into their repertoire, we stumble upon "The Ghost in the Stereoscope, " dating back to approximately 1856. This intriguing piece demonstrates not only their technical expertise but also hints at their willingness to explore unconventional subjects that captivated audiences during that era. Dr. Henry Maudsley's portrait between 1873 and 1876 showcases another facet of The London Stereoscopic Company's work - capturing eminent personalities with precision and artistry. Their talents extended beyond individual portraits; they were also adept at documenting important events such as "Sketches at the Opening of the International Fisheries Exhibition. " An engraving depicting this occasion allows us a glimpse into historical moments through three-dimensional imagery. In addition to capturing contemporary events, The London Stereoscopic Company preserved memories from past exhibitions like "86 Stereographic Views of The International Exhibition of 1862. " These visual records serve as valuable artifacts showcasing advancements made during that period. British castles hold an undeniable allure for history enthusiasts, and thanks to thirteen early stereograph views taken by The London Stereoscopic Company between the 1860s-80s, we can marvel at these architectural wonders frozen in time.
