EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Washington Bridge, spanning over the Harlem River in New York City during the early 1900s. The steel-arch construction with its two impressive 150m main spans is a testament to architectural brilliance of the time. Construction on this iconic bridge began in 1886 and was completed three years later, opening to traffic on February 22,1889. Its masonry approaches add a touch of grandeur to its already striking design. The image is sourced from "Scenic Marvels of the New World" edited by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell. The photograph captures not only an architectural marvel but also offers a glimpse into America's rich history and geographical features. The Washington Bridge stands as a symbol of progress and innovation that characterized both the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece, we are reminded of Professor George R. Cromwell's contribution to documenting scenic wonders like this bridge across our great nation. Although created by an unknown artist, this print serves as a reminder of how human ingenuity can shape landscapes and connect communities. Let us appreciate this stunning piece from Heritage Images for its historical significance, showcasing an enduring landmark that continues to grace New York City's skyline even today.
