This video on Youtube features some fantastic 3D reconstructions depicting Jack the Ripper’s crime scenes.
One scene, in particular, that caught my eye was the scene/photo we call MJK2 – the photo of Mary Kelly in situ in No13 Miller’s court.
A still from the video shows just how accurate the makers got to the original photo:
And when given a vintage/aged treatment and comparing the original side by side you can really begin to appreciate what a good job the video creators did.

Miller’s Court was featured in the very last episode of the FINAL series of Ripper Street (2016). The set was not authentic to the original location by any stretch of the imagination but I don’t think they were aiming for visual accuracy.

I’ve been doing loads of modelling of No13 over the last few weeks as I want to try to achieve some realistic images. It’s possible to get photo realistic results but I have to learn and fail along the way!

The Model
Here is the latest attempt at 13 Miller’s Court. It’s a Sketchfab hosted model so you can view it straight from your browser which is good. Stick it in full screen OR better yet go out and buy some 700 quid VR goggles (or £10 Google cardboard) and you can use VR to stand in the room and have a look around. it’s a great experience (perhaps ‘great’ is not the word to use to describe such a real life horror but the experience is very immersive).
This is a 3D camera mapping of the photo known as MJK1
Here is a Youtube video of the Dorset street Photo, camera mapped:
Here is some work on the subject of MJK2 being that of her left or right hand. Both versions have been 3D’ed for comparison:
