The knowledge of western historians has, for many years, been limited to printed sources, and in the study of the Romanovs, it has centered solely on the reigning branch of the family. However, the Imperial family was not limited to the central branch of Nicholas I, but extended far beyond. In an effort to acquire a panoramic view of the Romanov dynasty, this book has put together photographs starting with the reign of Alexander II (1855-1881), the era that saw the development of photography and goes through the 20th century.

Stereograms, in this book, are computer-generated kaleidoscopic images that, although flat, give the impression of solidity or relief. Though they have existed for 150 years, with the help of computers, they have now emerged in a new form as they produce the same effect on the viewer without the need for special viewing devices. These captivating images have a brilliant alluring quality that force you to “see” in a new way. In great detail and with exquisite illustrations, this book- written by an architect, a graphic artist, and a civil engineer- explains the intrigue behind stereograms by charting their history and describing how and why they work.
