Magic Lantern Slide: Photograph of man stepping across stream
Alfred Rowden was a keen amateur photographer and natural historian in Exeter. He often gave talks at local field clubs, illustrated with magic lantern slides that he created or purchased from commercial manufacturers. This informal photograph was probably taken during a field trip but it is unusual as it has not been labelled with a title or description of who is recorded in the photograph.
