This albumen print captures the enchanting view of a folly in Roundhay Park, located in Leeds, England. The photograph, taken by Edward Wormald during his active years between 1858 and 1888, measures 27.9x21 cm and is now housed at the Leeds Museums and Art Galleries.

Edward Wormald's skillful photography brings out every intricate detail of this picturesque scene. His composition highlights both the grandeur of the gothic architecture and the delicate balance between man-made structures and natural elements.
