EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this hand-coloured photograph of Llangollen, Wales, during the Victorian era. The image transports us to an era of elegance and charm, as horse-drawn carriages make their way across the iconic suspension bridge, spanning the picturesque River Dee. The town of Llangollen, nestled in the heart of Denbighshire, was a popular destination for Victorian travellers seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The town's natural beauty and rich history made it an idyllic retreat, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the town's charm and allure. The suspension bridge, a marvel of engineering at the time, adds to the photograph's intrigue. Constructed in 1845, it was the longest single-span suspension bridge in the UK and a testament to the ingenuity of the Victorian era. The bridge connects the town on either side of the River Dee, providing a vital link for travellers and locals alike. The photograph's hand-coloured technique adds an extra layer of depth and richness to the image. The vibrant hues of the greenery, the crisp whites of the carriages, and the muted tones of the buildings transport us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. This photograph is a treasure from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, a vast repository of historical images that offer a unique insight into the past. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people and the town, frozen in time, waiting to be discovered.
