Stereo analysis
AnalyzedVerdict
Genuine stereo pair97%
The two photographs contain the viewpoint difference needed to produce genuine depth.
- Depth spread
- 8px
- The range of horizontal difference between the two views. More spread generally means more depth; 0–1 px usually indicates a monoview.
- Match
- 99%
- 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
- 2px
- Vertical drift between matched details. Lower is better; 4 px or more can indicate camera movement, scan skew, or poor alignment.
A wooden schooner lies alongside a low waterfront landing, its after sail raised and several figures standing aboard. A mooring line curves from the stern across the open water. The rough bank and an overhanging tree occupy the foreground, while sheds, other vessels, and a low shoreline extend behind the rigging.
The paired photographs are mounted on an orange card with rounded corners, printed “E. A. JENNEY, ARTIST.” and “DETROIT MICH.” These imprints identify the artist and his business location, but do not establish where the view was taken. Lettering on the vessel’s stern and a partly cropped white inscription at the foot of the left image are not sufficiently clear for secure transcription; the vessel and landing remain unidentified.
The reverse is plain pink, with a pencil notation at the lower right reading “RE24,” apparently an inventory or dealer code rather than a view caption. There is no printed reverse catalogue or securely legible view number to connect with the front. The card is undated.
The photographs retain clear detail in the hull, rigging, and waterfront buildings. They are clean overall, and the card is sound, without visible major cracks, tears, or image losses.
