EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Bridge & Workers (Pont De La Mulatiere)" and printed around 1856, is a masterpiece by the renowned French photographer Edouard Baldus. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to the 19th century and the bustling city of Lyon, France. The photograph captures the Saone River railway bridge, Pont de la Mulatière, a significant engineering feat of the time. The bridge, with its intricate ironwork and impressive stone pillars, stands proudly over the river, while the workers below toil away, laying tracks and securing the bridge's foundation. Baldus expertly employs the wet collodion process to create an albumen print, resulting in a striking image with a sepia tone. The photograph is a testament to the laborious process of building infrastructure during the industrial revolution, showcasing the dedication and hard work of the men involved. The official-looking figures in the foreground add a sense of authority and importance to the scene. This photograph is an essential piece of heritage art, providing a window into the past and showcasing the intricacies of 19th-century engineering and labor practices. Today, it is part of the esteemed collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a testament to its historical significance and artistic merit.
