EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1864, showcasing the magnificent Brest swing bridge in all its glory. Known as the National bridge, this engineering marvel stands tall over the bustling city of Brest in Brittany, France. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown but has left an indelible mark on history through their intricate engraving. The image captures the sheer grandeur of this architectural gem, with its sturdy metal structure gracefully spanning across the river. The swing mechanism is prominently displayed, allowing ships to pass through effortlessly. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation during that era. The scene depicts a vibrant cityscape surrounding the bridge, offering a glimpse into life in 19th century Brest. From busy docks to impressive buildings lining the waterfront, every detail tells a story of progress and development. Stefano Bianchetti's careful restoration work brings new life to this historical artwork while preserving its authenticity.
