EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the reconstructed Macclesfield Bridge, also known as Blow-up-Bridge, on Regent's Canal in London, England. Taken by Ethel Davies in 2009, this image showcases the exterior of the bridge against a sunny blue sky backdrop. The history behind this iconic bridge dates back to a tragic event that occurred in 1874. A barge named Tilbury was sailing under the original Macclesfield Bridge when an unfortunate accident took place. A barrel of gunpowder ignited onboard the barge, leading to a devastating explosion that completely destroyed the bridge. Ethel Davies' photograph not only highlights the beauty and serenity of Regents Canal but also serves as a reminder of its tumultuous past. The reconstructed Macclesfield Bridge stands tall and proud today, symbolizing resilience and restoration. Through her lens, Davies expertly captures both then and now images - juxtaposing historical significance with contemporary charm. This horizontal composition showcases how time has transformed this location while still retaining its allure. As we gaze at this stunning photograph, we are transported to a moment frozen in time - where nature meets architecture and history intertwines with modernity. It is through images like these that we can appreciate our heritage and marvel at how it shapes our present-day surroundings.
