EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting landscape of Newport Bridge and Castle in 1898. The image, captured by an unknown creator, showcases the remarkable architecture of Newport Castle, which was constructed in the 14th century along the River Usk. Originally serving as an administrative office for rent and tax collection from local tenants, this fortification stands as a testament to British history. The scene depicted in this engraving exudes a sense of tranquility as dusk settles over the river. In the background, we catch a glimpse of several rowing boats gracefully gliding through the water, adding to the picturesque charm of this location. A lone figure can be seen on one of these boats, perhaps enjoying a leisurely evening ride or simply taking in the breathtaking scenery. With its historical significance and stunning natural beauty, it is no wonder that Newport Bridge and Castle became a popular tourist attraction during that time period. This print is part of "Our Own Country". Volume V - an esteemed literary work published by Cassell and Company Ltd. , based in London, Paris & Melbourne. As we admire this mesmerizing snapshot from our past, let us appreciate both the artistry behind capturing such moments and also reflect upon how places like Newport Bridge and Castle continue to inspire awe across generations.
