North Bridge, Hull, circa 1950

This artwork presents a revitalised view of North Bridge over the River Hull, transformed from an old black and white photograph into a vibrant colourised piece. The bridge, a historic bascule structure built between 1928 and 1931, showcases elegant wrought iron latticework and has served as a crucial transport link for decades.

While the general landscape of the river and its industrial backdrop remains, many of the buildings depicted have since vanished, adding a layer of nostalgia to this scene. The interplay of water and architecture invites reflection on the passage of time and the evolution of urban spaces.
