EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "View of The Old Bridge, Foot of Stockwell Street, 1846" takes us back to the bustling streets of Glasgow in the mid-19th century. Erected by Bishop Rae in 1845, this magnificent bridge stands as a testament to both architectural prowess and historical significance. The image showcases the old bridge in all its grandeur, spanning across the tranquil waters below. Its elegant design is juxtaposed against the surrounding buildings and cobblestone streets, giving us a glimpse into life during this era. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every brick and archway has been meticulously captured. Commissioned for Robert Stuart's publication "Views and Notices of Glasgow in Former Times" (1848), this print transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed these very streets. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of architecture but also provides valuable insight into Glasgow's rich history. As we gaze upon this enchanting scene, we are reminded that bridges serve as more than mere physical connections between two points; they symbolize unity and progress. This particular bridge holds immense cultural significance for Scotland and its people. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now admire this historical gem from our own homes. Let it transport you back through time as you marvel at the craftsmanship that went into creating such an iconic landmark on Stockwell Street.
