  A field of wildflowers "Ontario. Kincardine"
  Photograph of a wildflower field in the shadow of a vertical rocky cliff in Ontario, Canada . It is noted that the photograph was taken in July of 1929. Several houses sit at the base of the rocky outcropping and a narrow walking path cuts through the meadow. Jefferson would often use the same negative to create a lantern slide as well as a mounted stereographic card. When possible we have indicated if it is a repeat image, however this is not always the case. As such, there may be a corresponding digitized glass lantern slide, and a mounted stereographic card associated with this stereographic negative within the Mark Jefferson Collection.
