Devil's Bridge is an 11th Century bridge built by the monks of Strata Florida. It marks the terminus of the Vale of Rheidol steam railway. Legend has it that the lowest bridge was built by the Devil himself to let a local woman rescue her cow which had somehow got to the other side of the gorge. Expecting the woman to walk across to get it, the devil's one condition was that he would receive the soul of the first living creature to cross the bridge. However, he was tricked by the lady who got her pet dog to run across first, thus leaving the Devil with a soul of a dog.
The colour reproductions are from the original Photochroms. Photochrom was a technique developed in Switzerland in the 19th century for colouring black and white photographs using up to fourteen lithograph stones. This created a coloured image with a combined look something between a photograph and painting. The photochrome comes on museum quality canvas producing stunning reproduction detail and colour. Fine art canvas prints are available in two sizes, and can be supplied to anywhere around the globe through our secure online ordering system.
