This black and white photograph by Francis Frith, titled "Westminster Abbey gezien vanaf Deans Garden in Londen," captures a view of the iconic Westminster Abbey from Dean's Garden. The image, created sometime between 1870 and 1890, showcases the abbey's imposing architecture, particularly its towering spire, from a slightly distant perspective. The photo highlights the abbey's intricate details, like its gothic windows and the clock on its tower. The surrounding trees and the quiet garden create a sense of tranquility in contrast to the grandeur of the abbey. This photograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Frith's skill in capturing the essence of architectural landmarks, offering a glimpse into 19th-century London.
