EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken between 1900 and 1906 by renowned photographer William H. Jackson, showcases the impressive Steel Viaduct of the Chicago & North Western Railway (C. & N.W. Ry.) spanning the Des Moines River in Iowa, United States. The image, measuring 8 x 10 inches, is a testament to the engineering marvels of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. William H. Jackson, a prolific photographer, captured this scenic vista using either a dry plate negative or a glass negative process. The photograph presents a stunning contrast between the rugged, natural beauty of the Des Moines River and the industrial strength of the steel structure. The viaduct's intricate design and the way it harmoniously blends with the surrounding landscape are a sight to behold. The C. & N.W. Ry. was a significant player in the transportation industry during that era, connecting various parts of the country through its extensive rail network. This photograph not only highlights the company's engineering prowess but also offers a glimpse into the rich history of the United States during the 1900s. The Steel Viaduct over Des Moines River, Iowa, is an essential piece of American heritage art that continues to inspire awe and admiration. This photograph, now part of the collections at the Library of Congress, serves as a reminder of the past and the incredible progress humanity has made in engineering and transportation.
