Brian May, of Queen, and photo-historian, Elena Vidal, have revived a renowned series of 59 photographs produced by a master of Victorian stereoscopic photography, Thomas Richard Williams.
Pictures leap into glorious 3D, viewed in the new focusing stereoscope, which May has designed and produced, to bring the stereos to life. The result is a powerfully atmospheric and touching set of photographs.
