No. 193a. Old Ponton Bridge at Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, 1885
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print captured by Henry Bosse in the late 19th century. The image showcases an oval-shaped pontoon bridge spanning across the mighty Mississippi River in Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin. In this monochromatic cyanotype, the deep blue tones evoke a sense of nostalgia and transport us back to a bygone era. The bridge stands as a testament to American engineering ingenuity and serves as a vital link connecting communities on either side of the river. The photograph's composition highlights both the grandeur of nature and human-made structures. The vast expanse of water reflects the sky above, creating an ethereal atmosphere that adds to its allure. As we gaze upon this heritage art piece, we are reminded of America's rich geographical features and its historical significance. Henry Bosse's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate not only the physical structure but also the surrounding landscape. This snapshot freezes time, allowing us to witness life along one of America's most iconic rivers during an era long past. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print captures our imagination and invites us to explore the history and beauty that lies within every corner of our country - from small towns like Prairie du Chien to monumental landmarks like bridges over great rivers such as Mississippi.
