The Great East River Suspension Bridge, by Currier & Ives depicts the newly built Brooklyn Bridge spanning the East River, its Gothic-arched stone towers and web of suspension cables rising above a harbor busy with steamships and sailing vessels beneath the Manhattan skyline. The print reflects the celebrated American lithography firm's specialty for capturing landmark achievements and everyday scenes of 19th-century life in vivid, hand-colored detail.
Artist: Currier & Ives. Date: c. 1881.
