- Falls View Suspension Bridge over the Niagara RiverBy Joachim Ferdinand RichardtLocated in New York, NYBorn in Brede, Denmark, Ferdinand Richardt studied at the Copenhagen Academy where he learned landscape painting under the German artist Gustav Hetsch.

In 1872, the open timber towers were clad with wood and corrugated metal siding, which afforded the entire structure a more permanent look, and a steam-powered Otis elevator...Category
