Portumna Bridge, Co. Galway - Giclée Print.

Delve into the architectural marvel of the Portumna Bridge, an engineering masterpiece conceived in 1909 by the esteemed London engineer, C. E. Stanier. This bridge, a hallmark of early 20th-century European engineering, stands out for its steel plate girder design, supported by robust cast-iron pillars, each an impressive nine feet in diameter. Its significance lies not only in its size but also in its intricate steel structure and the innovative pivoting swing section over the navigation channel, making it a subject of technical and engineering fascination.

This artistic representation of the Portumna Bridge is skillfully rendered using pigment ink fine liner pens combined with watercolor pencils and paint. The resulting image captures both the grandeur and intricate details of this engineering feat.
