EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting interior of a London Bridge, likely the iconic Tower Bridge, during the 1890s. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, showcases the intricate details of the bridge's interior, with its ornate lanterns casting a warm, inviting glow. The brick arches and ironwork are adorned with intricate patterns, a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The London Bridge, completed in 1894, was an engineering marvel, combining both a bascule and suspension bridge design. The interior of the bridge, as depicted in this photograph, was just as impressive as its exterior. The lanterns, which housed the counterweights for the bascule sections, were a key feature of the bridge's design, and their intricate details are on full display in this image. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the hustle and bustle of London streets during the late 1800s. Horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians can be seen making their way across the bridge, adding to the sense of movement and energy. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the sights and sounds of London over a century ago. This photograph is a stunning reminder of the rich history and architectural beauty of London, and a testament to the power of photography to capture and preserve moments in time. The intricate details of the bridge's interior, the bustling streets, and the warm glow of the lanterns all come together to create a captivating and timeless image.
