General view of Parliament, London

The Palace of Westminster, with its Clock Tower (Big Ben), is a symbol of British power and stability. It also embodies the evolution towards a modern parliamentary system, following the reforms of the 19th century.

The company Ferrier et Soulier was founded by Claude-Marie FERRIER (1811-1889)and Charles SOULIER (1816-1886) in 1859. It specialized in the production of stereoscopic views.

Soulier's plates depicted a variety of subjects, including landscapes, monuments, urban scenes and historical events.

Stereoscopic glass plates were considered high-quality products and aesthetically superior to paper stereoscopies. They were heavier and more fragile, but offered better image quality and a more immersive visual experience.

The works of Ferrier and Soulier are today considered collector's items.
