Abstract
The stereoscopic autochromes that Marc Ferrez (1843-1923) made in his last decade of life are radically different from the author’s most known work. This essay discusses initially a few urban views of Rio de Janeiro around 1900 and suggests, in contrast with them, that the idyllic-melancholic images produced, mostly in Europe, during the Great War period, are the result of the influence of cinema on the gaze of the veteran photographer.
