Description
Photograph of the view of the lower half of an oil rig, [s.d.]. The base of the oil rig is surrounded by what appears to be debris - the ramshackle oil rig's lower half is the only portion visible. There are numerous men visible inside the base of the rig - they all appear to be working. The rig rests on the sand and the ocean is visible in the background. At right, four men are visible amid the debris - three are standing on the sand and appear to be busy, while the fourth is sitting on what appears to be a large iron pipe.
