Swiss Cottage, Osborne

c. 1855

Glass plate negative of the Swiss cottage at Osborne with a small garden in the foreground.

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.
