Description
Photograph of an unidentified dam, showing water flowing from the spillway on the left, ca.1930. The dam at center resembles a castle with its brick wall and three protruding towers along the roadway which runs over the top from the foreground on the right around to the background. The dam's interior wall is striped with grooves that resemble a steep staircase. It bows slightly outward with the water shooting out the spillway into the bottom of the jagged mountains on the left and the calm water collected on the right.
