Bull Run Bridge Repaired

Andrew Joseph Russell

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden railway bridge crossing over a body of water. Men are on the railway tracks near a stone abutment, with the wooden bridge structure visible. The railway extends into the distance, curving through a landscape with hills, trees, and a cloudy sky. The scene has a sepia tone color palette, giving it a historical appearance. The details in the image capture the textures of the landscape, water, and wooden bridge.
