EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from the 19th century, showcasing Sunderland's stunning river bridges and a vintage paddle steamer during the late Victorian era. The photograph, taken from an elevated vantage point, offers a breathtaking view of the Tyne and Wear rivers, with their elegant bridges connecting the shores and leading the way to the bustling port and harbor. The paddle steamer, a popular mode of transportation during this period, gracefully cuts through the water, its large, paddle wheels churning up the river's surface. The steamship, with its tall, elegant smokestacks and ornate details, epitomizes the grandeur and sophistication of the Edwardian age. The image is further enhanced by the warm, golden glow of the lantern slide, adding a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back to a time when travel was an adventure and the world was a little smaller. The bridges, a testament to engineering prowess, connect the past and the present, while the paddle steamer serves as a reminder of the rich maritime history of Sunderland and the North East of England. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into a bygone era.
