Fine Art Print : West Pier Remains Brighton
Fine Art Prints from Fine Art Storehouse
West Pier Remains Brighton
The Pier was designed and engineered by Eugenius Birch to attract visitors and survive in the hostile environment of the seashore. Opened in 1866, it was a simple and functional structure built using dozens of cast iron threaded columns screwed into the seabed and strengthened by a lattice of ties and girders that provide the necessary strength to support the promenade deck whilst allowing seas to pass harmlessly through.
In 2003 the Pavilion was destroyed in an arson attack, and then in May the Concert Hallwas also deliberately set on fire

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting beauty of the West Pier remains in Brighton. Designed and engineered by Eugenius Birch, this pier was not only a marvel of architecture but also a testament to its ability to withstand the harsh seaside environment. Built in 1866, it stood as a simple yet functional structure, with cast iron threaded columns firmly anchored into the seabed. The strength of this pier lay in its lattice of ties and girders that provided stability while allowing the relentless waves to pass through harmlessly. For decades, it attracted visitors who strolled along its promenade deck, enjoying breathtaking views of the coast. However, tragedy struck in 2003 when an arson attack reduced the Pavilion to ashes. And just months later, another deliberate fire claimed the Concert Hall. Today, all that remains are these broken fragments standing as silent witnesses to their former glory. In this image captured by Nichola Sarah from Fine Art Storehouse, we witness both decay and resilience intertwined. The filter used enhances every detail while brightening up even the darkest corners. It serves as a poignant reminder of how time can erode even our most cherished structures but cannot diminish their significance or allure. As we gaze upon this derelict scene against England's picturesque coastline, we are reminded of both loss and hope - for what once was and what could still be if given new life and purpose.
