Capitol from a Distance Cyanotype Stereograph by Engelhart

Name/Title

Capitol from a Distance Cyanotype Stereograph by Engelhart

Description

Stereograph of a house with the Michigan State Capitol in the distance. Circa 1879. Taken by Lansing photographer Philip Engelhart. Engelhart retired in 1876 and the Capitol was not completed until 1878-79, so it is likely that the two cyanotype stereographs in the collection were taken in his retirement, hence the handmade imprint on the backs.
