This 19th-century photographic map by Henry W. Taunt, dating before 1879, showcases four picturesque scenes along the River Thames near Henley-on-Thames. The detailed map of the river and surrounding area serves as the backdrop for the individual photographs, offering viewers a glimpse into the idyllic landscape of the region. The images depict locations such as "Henley from above," "Henley from below," "At Marsh Lock," and "At Wargrave," providing a visual tour of this beautiful stretch of the Thames. Taunt's work is notable for its meticulous documentation of the English countryside, and this piece exemplifies his focus on capturing the essence of the Thames' natural beauty.
