The Duchess of Kent's Mausoleum at Frogmore
c. 185725.4 x 30.5 cm (whole object) | RCIN 2079367
Glass plate negative of a view of Frogmore Gardens with its eighteenth-century lake in the Home Park, Windsor. The Duchess of Kent's Mausoleum is visible through the trees in the centre middle-ground.
The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. Prints by Fenton from this negative do not seem to exist in the Collection.
