EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1907, showcases the South Brisbane End of Victoria Bridge in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. A symbol of the city's rich history, Victoria Bridge is a heritage-listed structure that was opened in 1895 and is named after Queen Victoria. The image transports us back in time, as horse-drawn carriages and cabs line the bridge, their drivers eagerly awaiting passengers. The trams, a popular mode of transportation during this era, can be seen making their way along the tramlines, their tracks visible in the foreground. The street is bustling with activity, with people going about their daily business, and the warm glow of the lampposts illuminating the scene. The telegraph pole, a remnant of the early communication technology, stands tall against the backdrop of the bridge. The intricate details of the bridge's architecture are on full display, with its ornate ironwork and sturdy stone pillars. The bridge's South Brisbane End, with its impressive view of the Brisbane River and the city skyline, is a sight to behold. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into Brisbane's past, showcasing the city's history and the way of life during the early 20th century. The image is a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of the people who built and used this iconic structure, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our historical landmarks for future generations to appreciate.
