Niagara, Rapids

Cleveland Museum of Art

The photograph "Niagara, Rapids" by Alfred Stieglitz depicts a turbulent river flowing through a gorge. The river occupies the lower half of the image, with white-capped rapids and dark water. The riverbanks are lined with trees and bushes. A steep, rocky cliff rises on the right side, while a forested area is visible on the left. Above, the sky is filled with large, fluffy clouds. The image is in black and white.
