Black and white sketch of a large industrial interior. The scene depicts a high-ceilinged warehouse-like space with a large open area. The ceiling has exposed beams and appears to have large windows or openings at the top. Multiple lines of parallel metal bars lie on the floor. A large metal structure with a hook hangs from the ceiling on the right. People are scattered throughout the space, some near the bars on the floor and others farther back. A bridge-like structure crosses the space in the background. The style is sketchy with much of the detail suggested rather than fully rendered. The title is "English War Work: Steel Bars for Shells" and the artist is Joseph Pennell.
