Stereo analysis
AnalyzedVerdict
Camera moved / alignment issue75%
The pair does not align reliably enough for a trustworthy depth reading; scan skew can also contribute.
- Depth spread
- 10px
- The range of horizontal difference between the two views. More spread generally means more depth; 0–1 px usually indicates a monoview.
- Match
- 85%
- The share of usable picture detail that can be matched between the left and right views. A higher number means a more reliable comparison.
- Vertical
- 5px
- Vertical drift between matched details. Lower is better; 4 px or more can indicate camera movement, scan skew, or poor alignment.
This stereoview, captioned “A Confederate Redoubt” and numbered 755, belongs to the “Photographic War History” series issued by Taylor & Huntington of Hartford, Connecticut. Its printed description locates the redoubt on the south bank of the North Anna River, Virginia. Men gather beside canvas shelters set against log-and-earth defenses, with a field gun at the left and a tall tree rising above the position. The warm-toned photographs are mounted on an orange card bearing the legend “The War for the Union,” accompanied by a printed advertisement asserting the firm’s ownership of the original war views.
