Bridges of Ross, County Clare, Ireland - a captivating hand-coloured photograph from the Victorian period, showcasing the picturesque Bridges of Ross in County Clare, Ireland. This exquisite image transports us back in time, inviting us to witness the breathtaking beauty of this historic site as it was over a century ago. The Bridges of Ross, also known as the Old Bridge and the New Bridge, are two ancient stone bridges located near the village of Kilfenora. The Old Bridge, dating back to the 13th century, is a single-arch bridge that spans the Aille River. The New Bridge, built in the 18th century, is a three-arch bridge that replaced the original ford. Both bridges have been important landmarks in County Clare for centuries, attracting visitors from near and far. This hand-coloured photograph, taken during the Victorian era, offers a unique glimpse into the past. The vibrant colours and intricate details bring the scene to life, allowing us to appreciate the timeless charm of these ancient structures. The photograph also captures the serene atmosphere of the area, with the clear waters of the Aille River reflecting the sky and the lush greenery surrounding the bridges. The use of a lantern slide further adds to the vintage appeal of this photograph. Lantern slides were popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and were used to project images onto a screen or a white wall using a lantern. This photograph, with its rich colours and intricate details, would have made for an impressive and captivating presentation during the Edwardian period. The Bridges of Ross, County Clare, Ireland, remain a popular tourist destination today, and this hand-coloured photograph serves as a testament to their enduring beauty and historical significance. This vintage image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Irish history, photography, or simply appreciating the beauty of the past.
