EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print showcases the iconic Severn Railway Bridge, a testament to the engineering marvels of its time. Painted with watercolors on paper by W. Key, this artwork measures 29x48 cm and is currently housed in the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust in Telford, Shropshire, UK. The image depicts a picturesque view of the Severn railway bridge spanning across the majestic River Severn in Gloucestershire. In the middle distance, one can spot the charming Severn Bridge railway station and signal box adding character to the scene. Designed by G. W. Keeling and G. W. Owen, construction of this remarkable bridge began in 1875 and was successfully completed four years later in 1879. The intricate details captured within this artwork highlight not only its architectural grandeur but also its significance as a vital transportation link during that era. Surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, this historic structure stands as a symbol of progress and innovation. The inclusion of boats on the river emphasizes how railways revolutionized passenger transportation during that period. With vibrant colors bringing life to every stroke, W. Key's artistic talent shines through in this exquisite drawing which now forms part of Elton Collection at Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, it serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and how art can beautifully capture moments frozen in time for generations to come.
