EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Bridge of Santa Cruz de la Laguna in Manila, taken in February 1891. The bridge, designed by the renowned French civil engineer and architect Gustave Eiffel, stands as a testament to his genius in both engineering and architectural prowess. The image showcases the intricate wrought iron details of this magnificent structure that spans across the serene waters. Its elegant curves and delicate metalwork reflect an economical construction style that was prevalent during that era. Transporting us back to South East Asia in the late 19th century, this photograph offers a glimpse into Manila's rich history. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can transcend time and become an integral part of a city's identity. Preserved within a private collection, this rare piece from Fernique Albert (d. 1898) allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power of photography to capture moments that would otherwise be lost forever. Whether you are drawn to its aesthetic beauty or fascinated by its engineering marvels, this print is sure to captivate any viewer with its timeless charm.
