Stock image library photography of Millenium Bridge & Bankside from the London Collection – Page 1

These photographs form part of the London Image Collection and cover the Millennium Bridge and Bankside – that historic stretch along the south bank of the River Thames between Blackfriars Bridge and London Bridge – and takes in the Tate Modern art gallery and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

Find here images of the Millennium Bridge at sunset, dotted with walkers and cyclists, swarming with morning commuters and overseeing passing tourist, ferry and working boats. There are views of the Millennium Bridge, Southwark Bridge and Cannon Street railway bridge in the morning mist (not quite fog), and details of the Globe Theatre. There are also images of two large inflatable statues by Paul McCarthy ('Blockhead' and "Daddies Bighead') – photographed from the Millennium Bridge – erected before Tate Modern.

The Millennium Bridge was built by Norman Foster Associates and Ove Arup. This modern pedestrian bridge, which links Bankside with St Paul's Cathedral, was opened for three days in 2000, then shut due to dramatic wobbling at full capacity (thus it is still known as 'The Wobbly Bridge'). It reopened in 2002, is extremely popular with both tourists and London commuters, and has contributed greatly to the rebirth of Bankside. The Millennium Bridge is an excellent place for viewing boat and ferry traffic and taking in many other Thames bridges.

Tate Modern houses the Tate Gallery's collection of international 20th century art. The gallery, converted from the former Bankside Power Station (by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, also designer of the ubiquitous red telephone box) houses a massive, cavernous exhibition space in the Turbine Hall and sports the finest cafe views in London.
