Drdinary image-plane holography requires the reconstructed image to straddle over the hologram, thus the image in front of the hologram causes visual confusion.This paper describes our experiments using non-paraxial astigmatism theory to make the white-light reconstructed image on the image-plane holography appear behind the hologram, thus avoiding visual confusion. All conditions for the experiments and the results are given in detail. Using this method, we have obtained a clear, bright, speckle-less white-light reconstructed stereoscopic image, located behind the hologram.
