Stereoview

This set of stereoscopic pictures were taken by the industrious and artistic Enami, the Japan’s greatest and most prolific stereo-photographer. Most of the photos were taken between 1895 and 1910, during the Meiji, Taisho, and early years of the Showa era. He died in 1929. The stereoview consists in a pair of nearly identical images that appear three-dimensional when viewed through a stereoscope, because each eye sees a slightly different image. This illusion of depth was be recreated with animated GIFs from Okinawa Soba.
Okinawa Soba is an American citizen who has worked for more than thirty years as a professional photographer in Okinawa, Japan. Currently living in Japan and involved  in other activities, but continues to enjoy photography as an amateur.
