Bailey’s East End Book 1.James Robinson, The Death of Chatterton, 1859, Collection Dr Brian May.Rock guitarist and
astronomer Brian May
has lent a rare collection
of Victorian stereographic
photographs to Tate Britain.
The pictures are featured in
a new exhibition, Poor Man’s

and Stereoscopic Photography,
which runs at the gallery until

Stereographs became popularin the 1850s and 1860s. Some
stereograph photographers
created tableaux based on
famous paintings. In the
exhibition, paintings such as
Henry Wallis' Chatterton,
William Powell Frith’s Derby
Day and John Everett Millais’
The Order of Release are shown
with their 3D hand-coloured
photographic equivalents.
Queen guitarist Brian May said:‘We’re thrilled that for the very
first time stereographs are now
on view at Tate. In this unique
display they can be viewed in
their full 3D splendour alongside
the beautiful Victorian narrative
paintings to which they relate.’
A new book, The Poor Man’s
Picture Gallery: Stereoscopy
versus Paintings in the Victorian
Era by Dr Brian May and Denis
Pellerin, is also available.RARE PICTURES ON SHOW
