Sobre a obra
This photograph encompasses both the grand scale of the smokestack and the intimate detail of the brick and mortar that went into its construction. Photographed from almost directly below looking straight up, the smokestack stands as a dizzying monument to industrial progress, dominating the sky like an ancient pyramid built in homage to the gods. The tower's placement just left of center, the meandering crack rising in the brick at the structure's center, and the spindly rail attached like a long-legged caterpillar to the smokestack at the right, however, serve to humanize the image by revealing subtle deviations from the industrial era's ideal of perfect regularity.
