EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1827 offers a glimpse into the construction of the iconic Old London Bridge. The intricate details captured by the English School artist transport us back in time, allowing us to witness the laborious efforts that went into building this architectural marvel. The print showcases a portion of the bridge's foundations, revealing the meticulous craftsmanship and engineering prowess required for such an ambitious project. As we examine every stroke of the engraver's tool, we can almost feel ourselves standing on those very stones, watching history unfold before our eyes. The Thames River flows gracefully beneath this work in progress, serving as a reminder of both its purpose and significance. This image not only captures a moment during construction but also symbolizes London's connection with its lifeline – the river that has shaped its identity throughout centuries. As we admire this piece from a private collection, it is impossible not to be awestruck by how much has changed since then. The Old London Bridge may no longer stand today, having been replaced by newer structures, but through prints like these, we can still appreciate its grandeur and legacy. In preserving this historical artifact through artistry and skillful preservation techniques, Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into our past and gain insight into one of London's most celebrated landmarks.
