London Bridge 1872
An illustration of London Bridge from chapter 1 of 'London: a Pilgrimage' by Blanchard Jerrold and Gustave Doré, 1872. Jerrold describes the scene: "The laden barges are sweeping through the arches, dipping sails and masts as they go: the Express boats are shooting athwart the stream above bridge: the Citizen boats are packed to the prow: the Monument stands clearly out of the confusion: the parapet of the bridge is crowded with dull faces looking down...".
