This print showcases a remarkable piece of engineering history - Isambard Kingdom Brunel's design for the Clifton Suspension Bridge. Drawing number 3, which is featured in this image, reveals the visionary architect's preferred design, complete with tunnels at either end of the bridge. Brunel's genius and innovative thinking are evident in this drawing, as he sought to create a structure that seamlessly blended functionality and aesthetics. The inclusion of tunnels not only added an element of architectural grandeur but also served practical purposes by allowing smooth passage for pedestrians and vehicles.
