Albumen print, 4.75 x 7.5 inches, circa 1889
Long shadows accentuate the deep perspective of this urban view. In the right foreground, two or three moving figures have partially registered in the image and appear as “ghosts” on a promenade of the park.
“X” was a prolific photographer, most active during the 1880s and 1890s. At present, his (or her) identity is not known.
