EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Carriage Roadway in the High Level Bridge, Newcastle-upon-Tyne" takes us back to the 19th century and invites us to explore a moment frozen in time. The image showcases the magnificent architecture of the High Level Bridge, an iconic structure that spans across the River Tyne in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. As we delve into this print, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details meticulously captured by the English School artist. The bridge's carriage roadway stands proudly amidst its surroundings, exuding grandeur and elegance. Its arches soar high above the river below, creating a sense of awe and wonder. The scene is bathed in soft light as if it were dawn or dusk, casting a warm glow on both sides of this engineering marvel. We can almost hear horses' hooves clattering against cobblestones as carriages traverse along this historic pathway. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on September 1st, 1849 – an era when such illustrations brought distant places closer to home for readers hungry for knowledge and adventure. Now preserved within a private collection but made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this artwork allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to create extraordinary structures that withstand the test of time. It beckons us to step into history and imagine ourselves traversing this very road centuries ago.
