Description
Photograph of molten steel poured in a steel mill, [s.d.]. A large metal vat suspended in the air holds the glowing liquid metal, and can be seen pouring the molten steel into a second vat on the ground. In the right foreground, numerous metal forms can be seen, presumably used to shape the molten steel. The steel mill seems to be a large, sturdy warehouse structure, fortified by numerous steel beams and brick wall supports. A ladder can be partly seen in the left foreground, near where the molten steel is being poured.
