Clifton Suspension Bridge competition drawing 4, by Isambard Kingdom Brunel
Design for the Clifton Suspension Bridge: Drawing number 4. Another design...some way further down the river for which towers would also have been necessary and in which the distance between the points of suspension was 1180 feet. The towers are presented in outline only, with no decoration (Isambard Brunel, Life of I.K. Brunel, p. 48).

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable competition drawing by the legendary engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The design, known as "Clifton Suspension Bridge: Drawing number 4" reveals an alternative concept for the iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol. In this particular vision, towers would have been constructed further down the river, requiring a staggering distance of 1180 feet between the points of suspension. The image offers a glimpse into Brunel's creative process and his relentless pursuit of engineering excellence. The towers are presented in outline form without any decorative elements, emphasizing their structural significance rather than aesthetic embellishments. This drawing not only highlights Brunel's visionary approach but also demonstrates his meticulous attention to detail. Courtesy of the Brunel Institute - a collaboration between the SS Great Britain Trust and the University of Bristol - this photograph preserves an invaluable piece of history from one of Britain's most celebrated engineers. It serves as a testament to Brunel's ingenuity and enduring legacy within Victorian engineering. As we admire this extraordinary artwork, it is impossible not to be captivated by its historical significance and appreciate how it shaped our modern world. This image invites us to delve into Isambard Kingdom Brunel's life and work while marveling at his contributions to bridge construction and transportation infrastructure that continue to inspire engineers today.
