Description
Photograph of people working on the Los Angeles Aqueduct construction, [s.d.]. A horse-drawn carriage pulls up beneath the pipeline at center where several man work amongst the scattered piles of wood. Concrete supports raise the dark pipeline as it extends down the hill on the left and up the hill on the right. Some sort of box is held above the pipe by a pulley with thin, barely visible wires holding it from above. Beyond the box, bushes spot the desert terrain which lies over the hills in the distance while rocks lie behind a small shed in the foreground.
