“Touching the Past with Eyes” – the Round of Lectures begins on Friday, the 26th.

It was hard to entitle the first lecture and we decided on the title “Touching the Past with Eyes “. This round of lectures has a grain of mysthitism and even of magic which allows to make a step from reality to taking in the essence of the pictures made in the 3D technique within the past 170 years. Olga Anaurova found the most striking pictures, they are masterpieces of stereo photography. There are also to be lectures on eyesight, photography and the riddle of the 3D image.
The lectures will take place on Fridays in the building called “ Gostynyi Dvor”. The round of lectures is entitled: “Stereoscopic Photography and Stereo Films. 170 years of history.”
