Sunset Symphony: Lethbridge Icons

Indulge in the captivating local charm captured by Mike Paterson of Paterson Fine Art in Lethbridge. This striking photograph, taken from the vantage point of the Galt Museum looking north, unveils a panorama of remarkable local artwork.

At the summit of the Coulees to the south of the high-level bridge, replicas of the drive wheels from old steam trains stand as majestic symbols of the region’s industrial history. The lens gazes beyond the grandeur of the largest steam engine wheel, stretching towards the high-level bridge subtly protruding from the coulees in the distance. To the left, the faint silhouette of the historic Galt mine adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene.

Enhanced by the warm, subtle hues of orange and reds from the setting sun, this photograph beautifully complements the autumnal colors of the fall grass at the coulees’ pinnacle. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this image is a visual journey into Southern Alberta’s rich history, encapsulating the era when steam trains, high-level bridges, and coal mines were integral components of the region’s lifeblood.
