I am starting a new series on this site, called "Antique 3-D Cheesecake." A hundred years ago, just as now, female beauty was a popular subject for photographers and their patrons. To me, the regnant style of that period seems more decent and tasteful -- and not incidentally more beautiful -- than that of today. But whether you agree with that opinion or not, you will surely rejoice to see these long-hidden works of art once again uncovered, as it were.
Every week or so, I will be posting an antique stereograph glamour photo, converted to red/cyan anaglyph for 3-D glasses. This is the first. It's titled "Before the Bath." It was published in 1902, by the H.C. White Company of North Bennington, Vermont.

Congratulation for this fine project!
[ »To me, the regnant style of that period seems more decent and tasteful — and not incidentally more beautiful — than that of today.«] – – – Oh, yes, I agree.
Now it’s my new idea – I´m starting a new »site« on my blog today with a continuous content – step by step I apply the links to »Antique 3-D Cheesecake« Number 1 … 2 … 3 … accompanied by pictures of antique stereoscopes. I think, that will be a »historical site«. Best regards – khnemo
That is a wonderful idea, khnemo!
