I. On various phenomena of refraction through semi-lenses or prisms, producing anomalies in the illusion of stereoscopic images
Year: 1857
Type: article
Abstract: The author having observed that photographic pictures representing flat surfaces, when examined in the refracting stereoscope, have the appearance of concavity, has endeavoured to discover the cause of that phenomenon, and to explain it. In order to ascertain if this peculiar effect was attributable to some imperfection in the lenses of the camera obscura which had produced the photographic pictures, or to a property of the stereoscope itself, he began to test the stereoscope without photographic images. For this experiment he placed under each tube of the stereoscope a diagram composed of vertical and horizontal lines crossing each other.
