Description
Photograph of the Saint Francis dam disaster, showing a close-up view of a river, [s.d.]. In the center background, a battered wall, which seems to be the ruins of the dam, is standing in an upright position. In the foreground, a river extends towards the background while a rocky shore delineates it. Mountains can be seen to the sides of the dilapidated dam.
