EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Niagara, mills and Grand Trunk Bridge, c. 1900" takes us back in time to the turn of the 20th century. The photomechanical print showcases a remarkable feat of engineering - the Steel Arch Bridge over Whirlpool Rapids. Built between 1897 and 1898 according to Leffert Lefferts Buck's design, this magnificent structure served as a vital connection between Canada and the United States. Its sturdy steel arches spanned across the turbulent waters of Niagara Falls, providing a crucial pathway for railway travel and public transport. The image captures not only the grandeur of this architectural marvel but also highlights its strategic location on the border between Ontario, Canada, and New York State in America. It symbolizes both physical connectivity and international cooperation. As we gaze at this historical snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine how it must have felt to cross this bridge during that era - witnessing breathtaking views of cascading waterfalls while embarking on journeys through North America. This photomechanical print by Detroit Publishing Co. , part of a private collection now housed within Bridgeman Images' archives, serves as a reminder of our human ingenuity when faced with geographical obstacles. It stands as an enduring testament to our relentless pursuit of progress and exploration throughout history.
