This wooden bridge connects the two parts of Queens' college in Cambridge. This bridge was built in 1906, replacing an earlier bridge from 1749 (which had seen repairs in 1866). But the later version kept the original design (designed by William Etheridge and built by James Essex the Younger), using straight timber but at the same time creating the allusion of an arch.
The rather unusual design of the bridge has given it its current popular name of the Mathematical Bridge - but as Queens' college themselves point out on their website: "There is no such thing as an “official name” for the bridge. It has never been named." In the 18th century it was known as “Essex’s Bridge”, it was later also known as “Newton’s Bridge” because it was erroneously believed he had designed the it. The bridge was sometimes called the Mathematical Bridge from 1803 onwards - but there was also another Cambridge bridge known by that name. But the bridge is also known as the "Queens' bridge" - the above mentioned website calls it both the Mathematical and Queens' bridge.
If you are really in to bridges I must recommend the college web-page on the subject, it is extensive and very informative.

The Mathematical Bridge, also known as Newton's bridge, Queen's College Cambridge UK. It looks like an arch but is made of straight timbers.
The Penrose Paving is constructed from just two different diamond-shaped granite tiles, each adorned identically with stainless steel circular arcs. There are various ways of covering the infinite plane with them, matching the arcs. But every such pattern is non-repetitive and contains infinitely many exact copies of what you see before you.

The bridge was designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design. Although it appears to be an arch, it is composed entirely of straight timbers[4] built to an unusually sophisticated engineering design, hence the name.

Altgeld Hall, originally named Library Hall, is one of the most prominent buildings on the UIUC campus. Dedicated in 1897, the landmark structure was designed by University Professors Nathan Ricker and James McLaren White. The architectural style, said to be derived from medieval church architecture, was called "Modern Romanesque" by the architects, and also is referred to as "Richardsonian-Romanesque" after architect Henry Hobson Richardson.
The original purpose of the building was as the University's library. In 1927, it was occupied by the College of Law and, since 1955, has been home to the Department of Mathematics. In 1941, the name of building was changed from Library Hall to Altgeld Hall, in honor of Illinois Governor John Peter Altgeld (1893-1897), a strong supporter of the University.
Altgeld Hall was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970.
This weird looking place is the Winton Gallery on Mathematics at the Science Museum in London. The Winton Gallery is a new permanent exhibition which tells the story of how mathematics has shaped the world. Designed by the world-renowned Zaha Hadid Architects, this outstanding new gallery spans 400 years and brings mathematical history to life through the design and architecture of its displays. The strange shapes depict the imagined wind flow round a Handley Page aircraft from 1929 the tail of which can just be seen in the centre of the image. The reflection was obtained from a display case with the camera resting on it. Photography is allowed in the Museum though as usual with no Tripods and no Flash
The picture was taken handheld though resting on the display with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens at 10mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing processed with Photomatix Natural for a natural look. More detail with Topaz Clarity. There was really not a lot of processing and the colours were pretty much as seen in this impressive gallery.

The bridge was designed in 1748 by William Etheridge (1709–76), and was built in 1749 by James Essex the Younger (1722–84). It has subsequently been repaired in 1866 and rebuilt to the same design in 1905.
The myth that the bridge was originally built without fastenings at the joints, but could not be rebuilt successfully without introducing fastenings at the joints, might owe its origin to a change in the nature of the fastenings during the 1905 rebuilding.
Although it appears to be an arch, it is composed entirely of straight timbers built to an unusually sophisticated engineering design, hence the name. A replica of the bridge was built in 1923 near the Iffley Lock in Oxford.

The Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden bridge across the River Cam, between two parts of Queens' College, Cambridge. Its official name is simply the Wooden Bridge.
The bridge was designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design.
The original "mathematical bridge" was another bridge of the same design, also designed by James Essex, crossing the Cam between Trinity and Trinity Hall, where Garret Hostel bridge now stands.
The Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden footbridge in the southwest of central Cambridge. It bridges the River Cam and joins two parts of Queens' College.
I have always granted myself the freedom to exercise artistic license and pursue whatever brings me joy. Currently, shots from my cellphone and digital AI artwork fulfill that purpose, at least for the time being.
If in doubt which is my work and which is Generative AI, just look for the watermark on my photography.
