Magnificent photo album of one of the first great photographers: George Wilson (Georges Washington Wilson).
This album only has 18 photos of Scotland. Different photos of landscapes, cities, ruins and castles fill this album of the 1870's. The quality of this photos is great and all of them in very good condition.
Due to his great and extense work, this book is not as rare as the others in this web (L'architecture americaine, Villas pittoreques and Pompei), but I think is one of Wilson`s first works.
