The Iron Bridge, Lucknow, 1858 (b / w photo)
5922236 The Iron Bridge, Lucknow, 1858 (b/w photo) by Unknown photographer, (19th century); National Army Museum, London; (add.info.: The Iron Bridge, Lucknow, 1858.
Photograph, Indian Mutiny (1857-1859), 1858.
The bridge was built over the River Gumti in the reign of Nawab Amjad Ali (1842-1847), although its iron structure had actually been imported from Britain many years earlier. The lack of engineering knowledge in Oudh state delayed construction and it was not until Amjad Ali approached the East India Company for help that the Bengal Engineers finally built it.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic Iron Bridge in Lucknow, India, dating back to 1858. The image showcases the architectural marvel that spans across the River Gumti, a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess of its time. Built during the reign of Nawab Amjad Ali in the mid-19th century, this bridge stands as an iconic symbol of resilience and collaboration between Indian craftsmanship and British expertise. Imported from Britain years before its construction, it took considerable effort to bring this iron structure to life due to limited engineering knowledge in Oudh state. The photo reveals a tranquil scene with a boat gently gliding beneath the bridge's arches. It offers a glimpse into everyday civilian life at that time while highlighting how society relied on such infrastructure for transportation and connectivity. Preserved by the National Army Museum in London, this print is part of an album containing 20 photographs and a lithograph documenting significant moments during the Indian Mutiny (1857-1859). Its historical significance lies not only in capturing architectural beauty but also shedding light on colonial history and cultural exchange between nations. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by an unknown photographer from centuries ago, we are reminded of our shared heritage and how bridges like these continue to connect us both physically and metaphorically.
