Om værket

After its completion in 1889, the 1,064-foot Eiffel Tower was unpopular with the public but much celebrated by European artists as the symbol of modernity in France. Germaine Krull, a freelance photographer based in France, included this view of the tower's inner fabric in her 1927-1928 portfolio entitled *Métal,* a group of sixty-four photogravures celebrating the beauty and utility of machines. This dark view, looking up into the elevator tracks, demonstrates Krull's interest in the tower as a working mechanism.
