1858Albumen print | 24.0 x 41.0 cm (image) (image) | RCIN 2700051
Photograph of Medina del Campo in the Valladolid region of Spain. The view is of a town square featuring an ancient tower with an archway standing on the right, behind which is a domed tower. A street with buildings running along its length can be seen through the archway. In the background on the left stands a second tower with a belfry. In the foreground are horse drawn wagons. The features of the horses are blurred due to the long exposure time used to take this photograph.
