This print by George Henry Andrews captures a momentous event in British-Canadian history. The image showcases the grandeur of this engineering marvel, symbolizing both Britain's influence and Canada's progress during the 19th century. The bridge stands as a testament to human ingenuity and serves as a vital link between two nations.
