c. Sep 1854

Glass plate negative | RCIN 2083977

Glass plate negative of the River Dee, with dwellings situated in its banks. Hills in the far distance.

The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. Prints from this negative do not seem to exist in the Collection.
