New York. Hanging Bridge
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing etching from the "Diccionario de Arquitectura e Ingeniería" (Dictionary of Architecture and Engineering) by Pelayo Clairac y Sánchez, published in Madrid, Spain, in 1879. This illustration showcases the iconic suspension bridge that graced the white shores of New York City during that era. The bridge's horizontal structure, suspended high above the water, is a marvel of engineering, showcasing the ingenuity and innovation of the time. Pelayo Clairac y Sánchez, a renowned Spanish architect and engineer, meticulously captured the essence of this engineering feat in his etching. The image reveals the bridge's intricate details, from the cables that suspend the structure to the towers that anchor it to the ground. The etching also highlights the bridge's impressive span, emphasizing the connection between the two shores of the waterway. The etching is part of the vast collection of the Instituto Geológico y Minero de España (Geological and Mining Institute of Spain), which houses an extensive archive of historical documents and illustrations related to architecture, engineering, and the natural sciences. The institute's commitment to preserving and sharing this valuable heritage allows us to explore the past and appreciate the evolution of engineering and architectural design. This etching not only serves as a testament to the ingenuity of the past but also as a reminder of the enduring allure of New York City and its iconic landmarks. The hanging bridge, with its intricate design and impressive engineering, continues to inspire awe and admiration, making it a must-see attraction for visitors to the city and a symbol of its rich history.
