The River Coe flows through the valley of Glen Coe which extends for about 10 miles west from Rannoch Moor to the shores of Loch Leven. The area is popular with mountain climbers and hill walkers. This view from the banks of the River Coe was photographed in the first half of the 20th century by M.E.M. Donaldson.

Mary Ethel Muir Donaldson was born in 1876 and came to the Highlands around 1908. She travelled extensively around the North and West Highlands, writing and taking photographs.
