EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Norfolk Bridge, a true testament to 19th-century civil engineering. Designed by the renowned William Tierney Clark and opened in 1833, this suspension bridge gracefully spans over the River Adur in Shoreham-by-Sea, England. The antique aquatint engraving was skillfully created by George Baxter after Thomas Henwood's original artwork. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the architectural prowess of this historic structure. The bridge stands proudly amidst a picturesque landscape, surrounded by lush countryside and an enchanting avenue leading towards its entrance. A lone equestrian can be seen traversing the road that runs parallel to the riverbank, adding a touch of life to this serene scene. As we delve into Sussex's rich history through "The History, Antiquities, and Topography of the County of Sussex" written by Rev. Thomas Walker Horsfield F. S. A. , we discover more about this remarkable landmark. This print serves as a visual representation of Horsfield's literary exploration into Sussex's past. George Baxter masterfully captures every intricate detail with his artistry; from the ships sailing along the river to the mast towering above them against an expansive sky. This print is not just an exquisite piece of art but also an invaluable historical document that allows us to appreciate both beauty and engineering brilliance from centuries gone by.
