EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1789, showcasing a breathtaking view of the Charles River Bridge in Boston, Massachusetts. The bridge, an architectural marvel of its time, stretched an impressive 1,503 feet long and was 43 feet wide when it was completed and opened to the public on June 17th, 1786. In this wood engraving after a copper engraving from that era, we are transported to a bustling cityscape with Charlestown visible in the background. The image captures the essence of life during this period as people go about their daily routines. A couple strolls along the street while boats navigate through the waters of the Charles River. The intricate details captured by this artwork allow us to appreciate not only the grandeur of the bridge but also glimpse into North American history. It serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time and how structures like bridges play an essential role in connecting communities. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, let's take a moment to reflect on Boston's rich heritage and appreciate those who came before us - men and women who contributed towards shaping our present-day cityscape. This print is truly a testament to human ingenuity and serves as a window into our past for all admirers of art and history alike.
