Crowded aisles and vaulted commercial halls are the subject of this stereograph of the Great Bazaar in Moscow, a view meant to be seen through a stereoscope for a sense of depth. Moscow's markets were long a center of the city's trade, and interiors like this drew American audiences curious about daily life in Russia. The card was copyrighted by William H. Rau, a Philadelphia photographer who produced many world views for home viewers around 1903. The record's caption information is marked as unverified, so the exact building and date should be read with some caution.
