EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Willington Dean Viaduct, 1838" takes us back to the early 19th century in the United Kingdom. Created by artist John Wilson Carmichael and based on an original watercolor by G. Hawkins Jr. , this artwork offers a glimpse into the industrial landscape of that era. The viaduct itself stands tall and proud, showcasing impressive architectural design. In the background, we catch a glimpse of Newcastle upon Tyne, adding depth and context to the scene. A horse-drawn wagon loaded with stone blocks traverses along a plateway in the foreground, symbolizing the importance of transportation and infrastructure during this time. A boat with men aboard floats peacefully nearby, reminding us of another mode of transport prevalent at that time – river travel. The composition beautifully captures both land and water elements within one frame. Through vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, Carmichael's lithograph brings this historical moment to life. It serves as a testament to Britain's booming railway industry during the late 19th century when new connections were being forged across cities. Preserved by Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust in Telford, Shropshire, UK; this print is part of their Elton Collection. As we admire this artwork today, it allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its significance in documenting an important chapter in British history.
