- Description:
- A pair of nearly identical photographs for viewing the depicted image in three dimensions with a stereograph viewer. The monochromatic photographs show a man on the side of Mount Fuji, wearing a round straw hat and leaning on a staff, looking down from above the clouds onto crescent-shaped Lake Yamanaka, far in the distance. The clouds are white, puffy, and abundant, but over the lake it is cloudless. An image of the verso is included beneath the recto. The verso is printed with information about the landscape.
