Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) This old bridge between Newport, Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio was built way back in 1872. It was the first bridge to carry trains over the Ohio River and was used by the L & N railroad. There was also a walkway for people and a road for horse-drawn carriages and trolleys. Later on of course, this roadway was used by cars and trucks. The last train crossed this bridge in 1987 and it was closed to all vehicle traffic in 2001 when it was placed on our National Register of Historic Places. After an extensive restoration it was re-opened to the public in 2003 for pedestrian traffic only. The official name is the Newport Southbank Bridge, but because of it's slightly unusual color, many locals just call it the Purple ... People Bridge.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
