EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Before the Forth Bridge existed, crossing the Forth Five-and-Twenty Years ago" takes us back in time to Scotland's historical river crossings. Created by an anonymous English artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a scene from 25 years prior to the construction of the iconic Forth Bridge. The image depicts a bustling riverside with various modes of transportation used for crossing the mighty Forth River. In the foreground, we see horse-drawn coaches and carriages waiting on land while passengers embark onto boats and steamers. A tugboat gracefully glides through the water, symbolizing both power and progress. This engraving offers a glimpse into an era when river crossings were essential for travel and trade. It reminds us of how far we have come in terms of transportation infrastructure, as today we marvel at engineering feats like the magnificent Forth Bridge that now spans this very same river. As we admire this historic artwork, let it serve as a reminder of our ancestors' ingenuity and determination to overcome geographical barriers. The print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also sparks curiosity about how life must have been during those days before modern bridges connected communities across rivers like never before.
