EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a historic moment in time - the centenary celebration of the Royal Albert Bridge. Standing tall and proud, this magnificent structure spans across the River Tamar at Saltash, Cornwall, connecting London to Penzance through its main railway line. Built by the legendary engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel and opened in 1859, this iconic bridge has been a symbol of engineering brilliance for over a century. To commemorate its 100th anniversary on October 10th, 1960, it was bathed in a mesmerizing floodlight display that illuminated its intricate details against the night sky. The photographer Bowden skillfully captures this breathtaking scene with his lens. The image showcases the bridge's grandeur as it stretches gracefully across the river below. The lighting effect adds an ethereal quality to the composition, emphasizing every arch and rivet that make up this architectural marvel. In this monochromatic landscape photograph, we are transported back in time to witness history unfolding before our eyes. It serves as a reminder of human ingenuity and perseverance while paying homage to Brunel's remarkable legacy. This print is not just an artwork; it is a testament to mankind's ability to create enduring structures that stand as testaments of progress throughout generations.
