EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1900, showcases the majestic Aguas Livres Aqueduct in Lisbon, Portugal. Built in the 18th century, this architectural marvel was designed to transport water from the rural areas of the Moya and Alenquer regions to the capital city, ensuring a reliable water supply for its inhabitants. The aqueduct's name, which translates to 'Free Waters,' is a testament to the importance of this engineering feat in providing access to clean water for the people of Lisbon. The image captures the aqueduct as it gracefully arches over the Alcantara valley, its gothic, pointed arches a testament to the civil engineering prowess of the time. The verdant fields and rural countryside in the background offer a stark contrast to the urban landscape of Lisbon, highlighting the connection between the city and its rural hinterland. The intricate details of the stonework are evident, with each arch appearing meticulously crafted and sturdy, a testament to the enduring nature of this architectural masterpiece. The Aguas Livres Aqueduct is not only a symbol of Portugal's rich architectural heritage but also a reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of its people. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era when such feats of engineering were considered marvels of the modern world. The image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in Portuguese history, architecture, or civil engineering.
