View from the West side of Balmoral Castle looking up the valley

25.0 x 30.5 cm (whole object) | RCIN 2079404

Glass plate negative showing the view from the west side of Balmoral Castle looking up the valley with the gardens in the foreground. On the right is a large statue of a stag.

The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. A print from this negative exists in the Collection, RCIN 2140238.
