Catalogue Note
Ce daguerréotype correspond, par son grand format, la prise de vue et la façon dont il est signé et intitulé à celui de la vente Important Daguerreotypes, 2003, lot 3. Le texte du catalogue indique deux versions existantes. La plaque présentée ici en propose une troisième, le sujet de l'arbre étant déplacé très légèrement vers la gauche et donnant plus d'importance au détail du rocher à la droite de l'image.
