Description

Photograph of an unidentified river scene showing a small cascade through trees in the background, ca.1950. The smooth water looks like smoke as it crashes over the dark rocks in the foreground. At center the tops of the larger rocks remain dry as the calm river flows around them. Tall, dark trees hang over the river from the banks where fallen branches lie in piles on the left. A short cascade spills over a light rock wall in the background with trees spotting the mountain side behind it.
