Original impressionistic ink and watercolour drawing on fine grain – heavyweight acid free paper.
The Ha’penny Bridge is a pedestrian bridge built in May 1816 over the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland.
Before the Ha’penny Bridge was built there were seven ferries, operated by a William Walsh, across the river Liffey. The ferries were in a bad condition and Walsh was informed that he had to either fix them or build a bridge. Walsh chose the latter option and was granted the right to extract a ha’penny toll from anyone crossing it.
