Glass plate negative of the west side of Balmoral Castle with the gardens in the foreground. Trees stand on both the left and the right side. Hills in the background.

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 2140239.
