Trinity Bridge Lanterns


TRINITY BRIDGE, St. Petersburg, Russia

The Neva river is as proud with its sashes of bridges as an Imperial general, and Trinity bridge is of the highest rank of course. The bridge was built by 1903, when the city celebrated its 200-years anniversary. Mrs. Eiffel was this close to winning the competition, but the project of the Building Company Batignolles was chosen. 

Trinity of poles and lanterns supports the holy idea. It imresses. Look closer >>
