EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the Old Tyne Bridge in all its historical glory as it was displayed at the Royal Jubilee Exhibition in Newcastle-on-Tyne in 1887. The Old Tyne Bridge, also known as the Swing Bridge, was an iconic landmark in the city, having been in use since 1771. This image provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a detailed and intricate depiction of the bridge's unique design and the bustling activity on the River Tyne. The Royal Jubilee Exhibition was held to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Queen Victoria's reign, and the Old Tyne Bridge was one of the many important historical artifacts and landmarks showcased during the event. The bridge, which was a vital transportation link between Newcastle and Gateshead, was imported to the exhibition for the public to admire and appreciate its significance in the region's history. The engraving, produced by ILN (Illustrated London News), showcases the Old Tyne Bridge in all its intricate detail, with the bridge's swing mechanism clearly visible, as well as the various ships and boats moored along the riverbank. The image also provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the late 19th century, with ladies in elegant dresses and gentlemen in top hats and frock coats observing the bridge from the riverbank. This engraving is an important historical document, providing a snapshot of a bygone era and a testament to the Old Tyne Bridge's enduring significance in the history of Newcastle-on-Tyne. The bridge, which was eventually replaced in 1928, remains an important part of the city's heritage and continues to be celebrated and commemorated by locals and visitors alike.
