Photograph (?Albumen Print or Early Gelatine Print) of the North Front of the Old Ashmolean Building, by Henry Taunt, Oxford, c.1890 (Taken c.1870)

Sepia brown with rich slightly purply dark browns and pale cream light areas. Either an albumen print or an early sepia-toned gelatine print. Shows the very discoloured and decayed state of the stonework, and the balcony replacing the outer staircase (demolished in the early 1860s), together with a street gas lamp in the foreground.
