View of the Grounds at Windsor
c. 185725.4 x 30.5 cm (whole object) | RCIN 2079366
Glass plate negative of a stand of trees within the grounds at Windsor, seen across a lawn area. A shub surrounded by a fence is visible 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.
