Light Abstraction

Carlotta M. Corpron · c. 1947 · gelatin silver print ·  Accession ID  2001.67.62

The image shows a steel truss bridge viewed from the road, with geometric metal beams creating patterns that draw attention to the engineering. Trees line the sides of the bridge, separating the sky and road. The black and white contrasts highlight the lattice work. The railing leads the eye further into the image, emphasizing depth. The monochrome palette accentuates the starkness and symmetry of the design, giving a timeless quality to the scene.
