EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent architecture of the bridge of Solferino in Paris. Designed by engineer Paul Martin Gallocher de Lagalisserie, this iconic structure was inaugurated in 1861 and stood as a testament to engineering brilliance for nearly a century. The engraving, created by Felix Thorigny for "The Illustrous World" publication in November 1858, beautifully captures the grandeur of this historic bridge. Its intricate design and sturdy construction are evident even in this monochromatic representation. Sadly, despite its significance and beauty, the bridge of Solferino met its demise in 1960 when it was demolished to make way for the Senghor Bridge (also known as Solferino Bridge). While progress often demands change, it is bittersweet to see such an architectural marvel fade away into history. In this image, we can envision a bustling river scene with boats passing underneath the arches of the bridge. The view offers a glimpse into life in Paris during that era – a city filled with charm and elegance. Stefano Bianchetti's careful restoration work on this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind capturing such moments but also serves as a reminder of our rich architectural heritage. This print is truly an exquisite piece that transports us back in time while reminding us of how cities evolve over centuries.
