Description
Photograph of the Los Angeles Aqueduct, ca.1930. A line of water flows from the foreground to the background through the center of the image. Slanted walls of concrete sit on either side of the water while the left side contains overhanging bushes and the right side is barren. A mountain range covered in trees and snow can be seen in the background. The snow covered peaks appear brilliantly white against the cloudy sky.
