For the first time, three-dimensional photographs of the leaders of fascist Germany, led by Adolf Hitler, made in the 1930s, were released for the first time. Although they began to learn to make three-dimensional pictures in the 19th century, only in the 20th century they decided to take up the technology seriously, and did the German national socialists in order to propagate. Hitler’s personal photographer Henry Hoffmann performed a number of pictures of his chef at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, RIA Novosti reports.
The book with these pictures was released only now. For 15 euros, Tom’s “The face of the dictatorship is the Third Reich in the 3D photographs” can be bought at Pendo . In the book 212 pages, special glasses are attached to the pictures for viewing them.
Hoffmann made pictures together with the publisher Wilhelm Otto Shenstain, the German magazine Bild writes.
After the First World War, the young Munich photographer Hoffmann began to print pictures of revolutionary events and sell cards. Soon he joined the National Socialist Party and began to look for meetings with Hitler. Having met him at some kind of wedding, Hoffman fascinated Hitler. "You conquered me!" - said the leader of the Nazis Hoffmann, fulfilling his dream - appointing him his personal photographer. Thus, Hoffmann has become the most influential photographer in Germany of his time.
Hoffmann went to his experiment on the eve of the Olympic Games, turning for assistance to Shenstein. For this, Hoffmann and Shenstein first used double optics cameras. The book presents 100 photos from these sports.
The manufacture of three -dimensional images was also used by opponents of fascist Germany. When conducting aerial photography and carefully processing the pictures received, the British Air Force specialists found military facilities where the famous FAU missiles were launched and from the territory of which were launched. The strokes inflicted on them reduced the number of victims among the British population.
