EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Freeing the bridges" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured by an English School artist in the 19th century, it showcases a grand ceremony held at Lambeth Bridge in London. The image depicts men and women from all walks of life gathered on this iconic bridge, eagerly awaiting the arrival of their esteemed guests - the Prince and Princess of Wales. The scene is filled with anticipation as horse-drawn carriages make their way across the bridge, carrying members of royalty and other distinguished individuals. The atmosphere is electric with excitement and celebration, as everyone prepares to witness a historic event unfold. Intriguingly, this engraving was published in The Graphic on May 31st, 1879. It immortalizes not only the opening of multiple bridges but also captures a moment when people came together to honor their royal figures. From wooden pedestrian bridges to majestic stone structures and even suspension bridges, each one symbolizes progress and connectivity within society. This photograph serves as a testament to how infrastructure can unite communities while celebrating both tradition and innovation. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time - witnessing firsthand the joyous occasion that marked an important chapter in London's history.
