The foreground of the photograph reveals a pier that serves as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. It is fascinating to witness how this feat of architectural brilliance was nearing completion during that era. The juxtaposition of these magnificent ships against the backdrop of an unfinished suspension bridge creates a sense of awe-inspiring contrast.
