EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases the remarkable engineering feat of the "New R. R Bridge Portage N. Y". The image transports us back to the 1870s, during the construction process of this monumental structure. With its impressive dimensions of 800 feet in length and towering at a height of 234 feet, it is truly awe-inspiring. The photographer, Charles W. Tallman, an American artist born in 1833, skillfully captured every detail with his albumen silver print technique. The composition beautifully highlights both the magnitude and intricacy involved in building such a bridge. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at human ingenuity and determination. The workers suspended high above ground on scaffolding demonstrate their bravery and expertise as they meticulously construct this vital transportation link. The New R. R Bridge stands as a testament to progress and innovation during that era. Its sturdy framework promises durability for generations to come. This photograph not only documents an important milestone in American infrastructure development but also serves as a reminder of our ability to overcome challenges through collaboration and perseverance.
