EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable reconstruction drawing of Hadrian's Wall: Chesters Bridge Abutment, created by the talented artist Frank Gardiner. The image transports us back in time to Chollerford, Northumberland, where this ancient Roman bridge once stood proudly. Hadrian's Wall was an extraordinary feat of engineering and a symbol of Roman power and authority during the 2nd century AD. This particular section, known as Chesters Bridge Abutment, played a crucial role in connecting both sides of the River Tyne. It served as a vital link for military operations and facilitated trade between northern Britain and the rest of the empire. Frank Gardiner's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this graphic representation. Every stone, archway, and intricate design has been carefully reconstructed to offer us a glimpse into what life might have been like along this historic structure. As we admire this artwork, we can't help but marvel at the ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into constructing such an impressive bridge over two thousand years ago. It serves as a testament to human innovation throughout history. This print offers not only historical significance but also artistic beauty. It allows us to appreciate Frank Gardiner's talent while immersing ourselves in the rich heritage left behind by our ancestors on Hadrian's Wall - an enduring symbol of strength and resilience that continues to captivate our imagination today.
