EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Andreas Feininger captures the rapid construction of a new steel mill at Columbia Steel Co. in Geneva, Utah, back in 1942. The image showcases the efficiency and speed with which steel and concrete are being put into place, symbolizing the urgent need to bolster America's steel production during World War II. As war efforts escalated, this new plant played a crucial role in supplying vast amounts of steel required for various military purposes. The photograph highlights the significance of industrial development as an integral part of supporting the country's defense capabilities. Feininger's composition skillfully portrays the scale and magnitude of this construction project. Against a backdrop of billowing smokestacks, workers can be seen bustling around the building site while cars traverse nearby roads—a testament to both human labor and modern transportation facilitating progress. The colorized version adds vibrancy to an already dynamic scene, emphasizing not only the physicality but also the energy surrounding this pivotal moment in American history. Preserved within the Library of Congress' collection, Feininger's work serves as a visual reminder of how industries like manufacturing and construction united behind their nation during times of crisis. This powerful image encapsulates both resilience and determination—an enduring tribute to those who contributed to America's war effort on all fronts.
