<p>As people's eyesight improved in time so as to perceive and evaluate the vibrations of light, they started to see and make sense of their environments much better. Human beings exploring themselves, natüre and the characteristics of every living creature started to paint everything they were fascinated by and saw. As time passed by, people improved their skills about depicting the things around them, and tried to make the things in their paintings look more realistic/just like the way they saw them. For this purpose, they made several attempts and conducted experimental studies using different techniques. In the meantime, various techniques were developed; however, the oldest technique which is still used today is the use of anaglyph images, a stereoscopic imaging technique. This technique has been used as an instrument of both entertainment and education in the fields of education, medicine, entertainment and arts. Here, the present study aims to evaluate the effect of this technique on people through the project "History on My Door" conducted with the Turkish people living in Nuremberg, Germany.</p>
