Stereo analysis
AnalyzedVerdict
Camera moved / alignment issue70%
The pair does not align reliably enough for a trustworthy depth reading; scan skew can also contribute.
- Depth spread
- 6px
- The range of horizontal difference between the two views. More spread generally means more depth; 0–1 px usually indicates a monoview.
- Match
- 69%
- 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
- 4px
- Vertical drift between matched details. Lower is better; 4 px or more can indicate camera movement, scan skew, or poor alignment.
Theo. Lilienthal’s stereoview of St. Charles Street in New Orleans is captioned “St. Charles Street, Showing Masonic Hall” and numbered 45. Street rails recede along the paved roadway past multistory buildings, with pedestrians on the sidewalks and banners suspended above the street. Columned facades, balconies, and shopfronts line the view, including a prominent sign advertising “Boots & Shoes” and “Anatomical Lasts.” The paired warm-toned photographs are mounted on a yellow card with rounded corners, bearing a red pictorial imprint for the “Series of Stereoscopic Views of New Orleans and Vicinity.”
