EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The Great East River Suspension Bridge Connecting the Cities of New York & Brooklyn" takes us back to the bustling cityscape of 1885. The image showcases not only the magnificent engineering feat that is the Brooklyn Bridge but also offers a splendid panorama of the Bay and Port of New York. In this scene, we are transported to a time when ships gracefully sailed along the East River, their sails billowing in the wind. A tugboat glides through the water, its powerful engine propelling it forward with purpose. The bridge itself stands tall and majestic, connecting two great cities - New York and Brooklyn - symbolizing progress and unity. As we gaze upon this historic print from Currier and Ives' collection at the New-York Historical Society, we can't help but marvel at how far transportation has come since then. This engraving serves as a reminder of our ancestors' ingenuity in constructing such an impressive suspension bridge that still stands strong today. Let this artwork transport you back in time to an era where boats were essential for trade and travel while simultaneously celebrating human achievement in bridging gaps both physical and metaphorical. It's a testament to our ability as humans to overcome obstacles together, just like those who built this iconic structure over a century ago.
