Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the architectural marvel that was opened on 2 June with great pride by Mr Gladstone himself. The bridge stands tall and majestic, spanning across the powerful River Dee, symbolizing progress and connectivity. Its intricate design is beautifully captured in monochrome, emphasizing its structural elegance against a backdrop of natural beauty. The image transports us back to a time when bridges were not just functional but also works of art.
