Here is a description of the image:

This is a sepia-toned stereoscopic photograph mounted on a light yellow card from the 1872 expedition led by 1st Lt. Geo. M. Wheeler of the Corps of Engineers. The image is split into two nearly identical frames, each depicting a narrow canyon with towering rock walls.

The composition is dominated by the steep, rocky canyon walls that rise high on either side, converging slightly as they recede into the distance. The rock formations show distinct layering, indicating sedimentary strata. At the base of the canyon, a rocky streambed is visible, with scattered boulders and small pools of water. Some sparse vegetation clings to the lower slopes of the canyon walls.

The lighting appears to be soft and diffused, casting shadows within the crevices and layers of the rock formations. The overall mood of the photograph is one of depth and scale, emphasizing the impressive natural architecture of the canyon.

On the left side of the card, the text reads "EXPEDITION OF 1872". On the right side, the text reads "1ST LIEUT. GEO. M. WHEELER. Corps of Engineers, Commanding."

This is a stereoscopic photograph of a canyon, likely taken in the late 19th century. The image is printed on a yellow card and is divided into two halves, designed to be viewed through a stereoscope to create a 3D effect.

The canyon walls are imposing, towering above the riverbed below. They appear to be made of layered rock, possibly sandstone, and are textured with cracks, crevices, and other geological features. The bottom of the canyon is filled with large rocks and boulders, indicating a rough and uneven terrain. A stream or river flows through the middle, adding life to the otherwise barren landscape.

The photograph is labeled with "EXPEDITION OF 1872" and "1ST LIEUT. GEO. M. WHEELER. Corps of Engineers, Commanding" indicating that it was taken during a survey expedition led by Lieutenant George M. Wheeler in 1872. The image likely documents the exploration of the American West, showcasing the scale and grandeur of natural wonders.
