Smithfield Street Bridge 1883-1983 Commemorative Print

This item is a framed art print or poster commemorating the Smithfield Street Bridge, specifically marking the years '1883-1983'. The print depicts an architectural illustration of the iconic Smithfield Street Bridge, known for its distinctive lenticular truss design. The image showcases the bridge's main structure, including its characteristic arched spans and the pedestrian walkways. Colors appear to be muted watercolors or similar graphic design tones, featuring blues, greens, browns, and grays for the bridge itself and its surroundings. The bridge's intricate lattice work and rivet details are visible, highlighting its industrial aesthetic. The background includes what appears to be a cityscape or natural landscape with trees or foliage, rendered in broader strokes. The print is housed within a simple, matted frame, likely constructed of wood or a composite material with a black finish, which appears to be in good condition. The matting surrounding the print is a light, neutral color, possibly off-white or cream, providing a border between the artwork and the frame. There are no immediately obvious condition issues from the visible angle, such as tears, significant stains, or creases on the print itself. The frame also appears intact with no major dings or scratches. The presence of '1883-1983' prominently displayed below the illustration suggests it was produced in 1983 to celebrate the bridge's centennial. This places its age firmly in the late 20th century, specifically the Modern era. The overall craftsmanship seems to be of standard poster or print quality, focusing on clear reproduction of the artwork and text.
