Description

Photograph of an aerial view of Puddingstone Reservoir, ca.1930. The water seems to be white as it flows against the twisted banks of dark grass and trees. A long, lightly-colored pipe which appears to be the aqueduct winds around the curves of the hills in the foreground while intertwining roads cut through the hills in the background on the left. Small structures surrounded by trees stand in a clear field on the right with a misty mountainside in the distance.
