- What the image shows
- A black-and-white photograph taken from a raised viewpoint across a river at a hydro-electric power station, with the printed caption 'HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER DEVELOPMENT AT SHAWINIGAN FALLS, QUE.' along the bottom. Long brick industrial buildings with rows of arched windows sit on the left and right, linked by a wide concrete dam or spillway crossing the water, and large pipes or penstocks slope down the rocky hillside toward the riverbank. Wooded hills and a pale quarried slope rise behind the complex under an empty sky, while the river in the foreground shows rough white water.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
- Text in the image
- HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER DEVELOPMENT AT SHAWINIGAN FALLS, QUE.Two hundred thousand horse-power developed, half of which is used locally, mostly for electro-chemical purposes.Read automatically; may contain mistakes.
