Photographs of Swiss mountain scenery. Photographer: Mummery, Albert Frederick
- Scope & Content:
-
Eight snapshots of Swiss mountain scenery, originally contained in an envelope inscribed 'The only photographs (summer of 1894) Mummery ever took. J.W. Collie.' This presumably refers to the businessman and mountaineer Albert Frederick Mummery, who died on Nanga Parbat in the following year. All the prints, which are of indifferent quality, show mountain views (identified on the reverse as the Matterhorn and other peaks), apart from 210, a snapshot of 'young Pollinger and the Duke of Abruzzi' on the summit of the Matterhorn. A further note on the back of this print reads, 'Top of Matterhorn. Negative evidently was wrong way round in camera & has evidently suffered from damp.'
