EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1892, showcases the front elevation of the Middlesex Abutment of Tower Bridge, an iconic transport crossing over the River Thames in London. The bridge, an engineering feat of the late Victorian era, is depicted in all its grandeur, with the wide archway standing proudly against the backdrop of the London skyline. The Middlesex Abutment, with its crenellated archaic style, is a testament to the historicism that characterized the late 19th century. The intricate carvings and stonework on the abutment are a clear reflection of the meticulous attention to detail that went into the design and construction of this engineering marvel. The Tower Bridge, with its two towers and bascule design, is a symbol of London's rich transport history. The bridge's ability to open to allow the passage of tall ships through the Thames made it an essential transport link for the city. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terry Parker, captures the essence of the bridge's majesty and the awe-inspiring engineering prowess of the late 1800s. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the construction of this historic landmark that continues to stand as a symbol of London's resilience and ingenuity.
