The artist, Henry William Brewer, beautifully captures the architectural grandeur of this renowned bridge. With intricate details and skilled craftsmanship, he brings to life every arch and pillar that make up this magnificent structure. The focus of this print is on the proposed widening of Magdalen Bridge. It serves as a visual representation of progress and development during a time when modernization was becoming increasingly important.
