EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of The New Tower Bridge, which was opened on 30 June in the late 19th century. Taken by an English photographer, this print showcases a historic moment in London's history. The image portrays a bustling scene with ships passing through the bascules, vehicles crossing over the bridge, and pedestrians going about their day. The view from the north tower offers a stunning perspective of the river Thames and its surrounding landscape. The intricate design of Tower Bridge is showcased in all its glory, with its iconic southern abutment standing tall against the backdrop of London's skyline. The photograph not only captures a significant architectural marvel but also provides insight into daily life during that era. It serves as a time capsule, transporting us back to 1894 when traffic flowed across this magnificent structure for the first time. Preserved within a private collection, this rare print is reminiscent of an illustration featured in The Illustrated London News on that very same day. Its monochromatic tones add depth and character to every detail captured by the skilled lensman. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history through photography, we are reminded of how bridges connect people and places while standing as enduring symbols of human ingenuity.
