Balloons rise, fireworks burst, boats swarm like confetti on water. This 1883 print captures the Brooklyn Bridge’s grand debut in full jubilation. A city electrified, a river on parade. Send it for birthdays, big wins, or anyone who deserves a five-borough fanfare. From Fireworks series.

Currently held at the The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and part of ArdorU’s Fireworks collection.
