Stock-ghyll Force, near Ambleside before 1870

"Stock-ghyll Force, near Ambleside" is a photograph by Thomas Ogle, taken before 1870. The image depicts the cascading waterfall, a popular subject of Romantic-era landscape photography, and exemplifies the genre's focus on capturing nature's awe-inspiring power. The small scale of the photograph (95 mm x 81 mm), typical of the time, suggests its intimate viewing experience, perhaps within a personal album or a collection of landscape photography.
