EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a brave workman risking his life to oil one of the pulleys used in the construction of the iconic Lambeth Bridge. Designed by George Humphreys and opened by King George V in 1932, this historical bridge stands as a testament to early 20th-century engineering and architectural prowess.
The image showcases the hazardous conditions faced by workers during the construction process, highlighting the dangers involved in such daring feats. As the workman leans precariously over the edge of the bridge, vertigo-inducing heights looming below him, one can't help but admire his courage and dedication to ensuring that every aspect of this grand structure is meticulously maintained.
Against a backdrop of Westminster's historic buildings and viaducts, this scene transports us back to a time when bridges were not just means of transport but symbols of progress and innovation. The meticulous care taken in oiling each pulley serves as a reminder of the intricate craftsmanship that went into creating these marvels of architecture.
Through this striking image from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are given a glimpse into a bygone era where risk-taking was part and parcel of pushing boundaries in construction. It is a tribute to those unsung heroes who put their lives on the line to bring monumental projects like Lambeth Bridge to fruition.
