Description: Antique print titled 'Vue perspective du Marché au Vin vers l'Eglise de S. Ulrie le long du Magazin du Sel Auguste à Augsbourg'. View of the Hercules' Fountain (Herkulesbrunnen) in Augsburg, Germany. This is an optical print, also called 'vue optique' or 'vue d'optique', which were made to be viewed through a Zograscope, or other devices of convex lens and mirrors, all of which produced an optical illusion of depth.
