EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white albumen print, titled 'Bangor, Suspension Bridge, From Anglesey (254)' and dated around 1860, captures the breathtaking scene of the Suspension Bridge in Bangor, Wales. The photograph was taken by renowned English photographer Francis Bedford during the 19th century. The image showcases the bridge as a marvel of engineering, suspended gracefully over the Menai Strait, connecting the mainland of Wales to the island of Anglesey. The natural setting surrounding the bridge is equally captivating, with lush greenery and the tranquil waters reflecting the bridge's elegant structure. In the foreground, a solitary figure of a man is seen, gazing intently at the bridge, perhaps in awe of its grandeur. The man, dressed in the fashion of the 1860s, adds a sense of scale and context to the image, emphasizing the human connection to this engineering feat. The photograph, printed in black and white, emphasizes the textures and contrasts of the scene, from the intricate details of the bridge's suspension cables to the rich greens of the landscape. This timeless image, now housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, invites us to appreciate the beauty and engineering prowess of the past while reminding us of the enduring allure of natural landscapes and the people who inhabit them.
