This is a stereoscopic image depicting the eruption of Mount Pelée on the island of Martinique. The image is split into two nearly identical frames, designed to be viewed with a stereoscope to create a 3D effect.

Here's what we see:

  • Foreground: A body of water, likely the ocean or sea, stretches across the lower portion of the image.
  • Midground: A dark, mountainous landscape forms the midground. The mountain is erupting, with large clouds of steam and smoke billowing out from the crater and spreading across the sky.
  • Background: The sky is filled with dense clouds, obscuring the details of the upper atmosphere.

The image is in black and white and appears to be an older photograph, likely taken at the time of the eruption in 1902, as indicated by the copyright information at the bottom of the image. The image is marked with the publishers' names and locations, as well as the text "Great Clouds of Steam and Smoke sweeping down from the Crater - Mont Pelée in eruption, Martinique" and "Copyright 1902 by Underwood & Underwood."

The image is a stereoscopic view of the eruption of Mount Pelée in Martinique, captured in 1902. The volcano, positioned on the horizon, is actively emitting large clouds of steam and smoke that appear to sweep down from its crater. The base of the volcano descends into a body of water, with the foreground occupied by the water surface, providing a sense of scale to the erupting volcano.

The stereoscopic effect is created by two nearly identical images side by side, which, when viewed through a stereoscope, give the illusion of three-dimensionality.

The border around the images features text with the copyright information as well as the details of the publisher, Underwood & Underwood.
