Photograph of the Grand Canyon, showing a large cliff wall extending to the right, [s.d.]. In the background, a large cliff wall of the Grand Canyon is shown. Each of the sections of the cliff wall appear symmetrical, and each slope down into a large canyon seen below. The cliff wall has been greatly weathered, and several ridges can be seen along its structure. In the extreme foreground, a large rock can be seen to the right. Clouds are visible in the sky.
