Stereograph
July 14th is the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille, an act associated with the beginning of the French Revolution. France celebrates July 14th as a national holiday, similar to the United States' 4th of July celebrations. This stereograph showcases part of Paris, the capital of France. Originally copyrighted in 1901 by Underwood & Underwood. Underwood and Underwood was founded by brothers Elmer and Burt Underwood in Ottawa, Kansas in 1880 as a distributor of stereographs. Starting in the 1890s, Underwood and Underwood began producing its own photographs in addition to distributing the photographs of others.
