Description

Photograph of the Gatun Locks, Panama Canal, 1926. A wooden pole resembling a cross stands at the edge of the left gate of the concrete locks in the foreground on the far left. The locks lead to a grass hill occupied by several large structures. Several structures stand at the top of the hill with palm trees decorating the yards around them while many others stand at the water's edge. The water ripples and shimmers in the foreground on the right.
