Stereoview photograph
Published by Judd & Mcleish, Syracuse, NY
1870s
Height 3 1/2" Width 7"
Provenance: Private collection, Albuquerque, NM
This 1870s stereoview depicts a Native American man holding a pipe. It was published by Judd & McLeish of Syracuse, New York, and follows the paired-image format used for stereoscopic viewing in the nineteenth century. The sitter is not identified by tribe or region in the available information, so the listing should remain general.
Stereoviews were made with two nearly identical photographs mounted side by side, designed to be viewed through a stereoscope to create a three-dimensional effect. In the nineteenth century, they were widely collected for home viewing and served as a popular way to encounter distant places, people, and subjects through photography. The yellow mount, publisher’s imprint, and handwritten notation are part of this object’s period presentation and collecting history.
