C.M. & St. P. RR Bridge at Sabula, Ia.

Henry Peter Bosse

National Gallery of Art

The image shows railway tracks extending towards a bridge over water. The bridge is made of metal trusses with stone piers below, and two tall towers are visible at its ends. Beside the tracks, there are grassy patches and a leafless tree. The sky is prominent, with the bridge dividing it from the lower half of the image. The overall color scheme is in shades of blue.
