These were shown in ãpeep boxes\" which in turn were usually set up by travelling owners of such viewing devices on markets throughout Europe. People could, for a certain amount of money, look into a peep box and view these perspective views through a magnifying lense which, at the same time, gave the viewer the impression of threedimensional perception. Well-to-do people bought such viewing machines for their families and began collecting the vue d'optique engravings showing them at home like slide show would be shown.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"CENTER\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003ePerspective view prints were usually colored quite boldly before they were sold. Black and white samples are the exception and rather rare. They also have more or less the same format (size), because they had to fit the peep boxes. The title of a view was not always, but quite frequently printed in several languages and often repeated above the view in inverted writing (which was corrected by the lens for the viewer).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"CENTER\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003eThe value of perspective view prints rapidly increased, when modern day collectors discovered the genre and began to be interested in collecting the prints.

Originating in England it became widely produced in Europe during the second half of the 18th century.

These were shown in ãpeep boxes\" which in turn were usually set up by travelling owners of such viewing devices on markets throughout Europe. People could, for a certain amount of money, look into a peep box and view these perspective views through a magnifying lense which, at the same time, gave the viewer the impression of threedimensional perception. Well-to-do people bought such viewing machines for their families and began collecting the vue d'optique engravings showing them at home like slide show would be shown.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"CENTER\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #20124d; font-size: large;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003ePerspective view prints were usually colored quite boldly before they were sold. Black and white samples are the exception and rather rare. They also have more or less the same format (size), because they had to fit the peep boxes. The title of a view was not always, but quite frequently printed in several languages and often repeated above the view in inverted writing (which was corrected by the lens for the viewer).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"CENTER\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #20124d; font-size: large;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003eThe value of perspective view prints rapidly increased, when modern day collectors discovered the genre and began to be interested in collecting the prints.

People could, for a certain amount of money, look into a peep box and view these perspective views through a magnifying lense which, at the same time, gave the viewer the impression of threedimensional perception. Well-to-do people bought such viewing machines for their families and began collecting the vue d'optique engravings showing them at home like slide show would be shown.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"CENTER\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #20124d;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003ePerspective view prints were usually colored quite boldly before they were sold.
