About this work

This black-and-white photo shows an old stone building with a dome and arched windows. The structure sits near a small body of water, with trees and a few small buildings around it. The ground looks uneven, and the whole scene feels quiet and still. The photo was taken in 1894 by someone named Groves, who focused on capturing real places. The details are sharp, but the lighting is soft, like an early morning or late afternoon. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more photos like this.
