EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bridge St. Louis Mississippi" transports us back to January 10,1875, capturing the grandeur of the iconic bridge that spans over the mighty Mississippi River in St. Louis, Missouri. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Robert Benecke, an American artist originally born in Germany. In this albumen silver print, Benecke skillfully captures the architectural marvel of the bridge with incredible precision and detail. The composition allows us to appreciate both its impressive scale and intricate design elements. As we gaze upon this historic photograph, we can't help but be awestruck by the engineering feat accomplished during a time when technology was still evolving. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia as it offers a glimpse into a bygone era where horse-drawn carriages traversed this magnificent structure against a backdrop of bustling city life on either side of the river. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress. As we admire this piece from Liszt Collection, let's take a moment to appreciate how photography has allowed us to preserve moments like these for future generations to enjoy and learn from. This particular print not only showcases Benecke's artistic talent but also provides valuable historical documentation of an important landmark in American history - one that continues to stand strong today as an enduring symbol of connectivity and unity across borders.
