EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print captures the innovative proposal by French engineer Veyrrier in 1925 for elevated tunnels resting on the sea-bed. The concept of lowering sections from the surface to create a channel for transport is truly ahead of its time. The image showcases the intricate design and engineering involved in creating these elevated tunnels, which would have revolutionized transportation methods. Veyrrier's vision for a network of tunnels stretching across bodies of water is both ambitious and visionary. The photograph provides a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the history of transportation and engineering. It serves as a reminder of how ideas that may seem radical at first can pave the way for future innovations. The juxtaposition of the tunnel structure against the vast expanse of water highlights both its boldness and elegance. The sheer scale and complexity of this proposed project are evident in every detail captured in this striking image. Overall, this print is not just a snapshot from history but also an inspiring testament to human ingenuity and creativity. It invites viewers to imagine what could have been if Veyrrier's vision had come to fruition, leaving us with a sense of wonder and admiration for his groundbreaking ideas.
