Photograph of a man standing in the centre of a single arched stone bridge that spans a rock chasm through which flows the River Braan near the town of Dunkeld in Perthshire, Scotland.
As he did with many of his subjects, Wilson re-visited this site to record the scene in the larger cabinet sized print. He chose a view that looked into the gorge, thus emphasizing its depth, rendering a more dramatic scene.Provenance
Acquired by Queen Victoria
