Brooklyn Bridge, 1896.
I find this a very moving image of the bridge, encompassing the small bit of uneven workmens’ construction material in the bottom/foreground of the image, which for me was it center, and which caused my eye to scan from there to the top of the tower. The full mega-file of this beauty is a vertical panorama 40″x12″, and it seems as though you could push this to at least 60″x18″, and perhaps a full double to 80″x24″–it is impressive just seeing it on a monitor this big–in the Grande Lux tapestry version, I am sure it would fantastic.
