EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past and marvel at the engineering prowess of Isambard Kingdom Brunel with this stunning photograph print of the Royal Albert Bridge, taken in 1859. As one of Brunel's most iconic creations, this magnificent bridge spans the Tamar River, connecting Saltash in Cornwall to Devon. The image captures the bridge in its final stages of construction, showcasing the intricate details and grandeur of this Victorian-era masterpiece.
In this shot, we see a workman standing proudly on the trackbed as it curves around the riverbank, providing a sense of scale and perspective to this monumental structure. The fine-grained texture and rich tones of the photograph transport us back to an era when innovation and progress were driving forces behind human achievement.
The Royal Albert Bridge was built by Brunel for the Great Western Railway, marking a significant milestone in British railway history. This remarkable feat not only connected two counties but also symbolized Britain's growing industrial might during Queen Victoria's reign.
This incredible print is courtesy of the Brunel Institute - a collaboration between SS Great Britain Trust and University of Bristol - offering us a unique glimpse into an era that shaped our world today.
