EDITORS COMMENTS
Lambeth Bridge: A Deco Masterpiece with Regal Past This evocative photograph captures the iconic Lambeth Bridge in London, with its distinctive pineapple-topped columns at each end. Opened on the 12th of July 1932 by King George V, this Art Deco bridge is a testament to the grandeur and elegance of the 1930s. The bridge, a key transport link between Lambeth and Westminster, showcases the distinctive pineapple embellishments, a nod to the royal connection. The acorns, another Deco motif, adorn the base of the columns, adding to their ornate beauty. The Lambeth Bridge, a viaduct that spans the River Thames, was a significant engineering feat of its time. Its opening was a grand occasion, with the monarch himself presiding over the ceremony. The bridge, with its sleek lines and Art Deco design, was a symbol of modernity and progress, reflecting the optimism and excitement of the era. The photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the bridge in all its glory, with the sun casting long shadows over the Thames. The columns, bathed in sunlight, stand proudly against the backdrop of the London skyline, a testament to the enduring charm of this iconic bridge.
