Captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, this image offers a captivating glimpse into Norwich's rich history. The photograph features Bishops Bridge, a beautiful Victorian-era structure that spans the River Wensum in the heart of Norwich, England. The bridge, adorned with intricate ironwork and ornate stone detailing, is a testament to the engineering prowess and artistic vision of the past. The bridge's arches frame the view of the river, which is dotted with small boats and reflections of the surrounding trees. The photograph is further enhanced by the warm, golden glow of the gas lamps that line the bridge. These lanterns, with their elegant glass shades, cast a soft, inviting light over the scene, adding to the romantic and nostalgic atmosphere.

People can be seen walking along the bridge, some dressed in fashionable Edwardian attire, while others are engaged in various tasks, such as repairing the bridge or tending to their boats. The scene is bustling with activity, yet the overall mood is calm and serene. This photograph is a treasure trove of historical and artistic significance, offering a unique perspective on Norwich's past and the Victorian and Edwardian eras.
