EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. The iconic Eads Bridge looms majestically in the background, a testament to the city's architectural prowess. In the foreground, we see the historic Show Boat Golden Rod, a symbol of entertainment and leisure on the Mississippi River.
The scene is bustling with activity - from people strolling along the riverside quay to boats gliding gracefully on the water. The 1930s ambiance is palpable in every detail captured by Grenville Collins' lens.
The juxtaposition of old-world charm and modern engineering is striking in this image. The Eads Bridge stands as a reminder of St. Louis' industrial past, while the Show Boat Golden Rod represents a bygone era of riverfront entertainment.
As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time to an age when steamboats ruled the waters and grand bridges connected cities across America. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come as a society while also honoring our rich cultural heritage.
Whether you're a history buff or simply appreciate beautiful photography, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and transport you to another time and place.
