Collapse of a Structure
Image
View across what may be a metal roof towards a crowd of men looking at a collapsed structure of steel girders. The men are dressed in winter coats and hats. In the distance is a large pile of what may be coal, and a sign on an industrial building reads: "Coal / Wood." In the far background is the skyline of Milwaukee, with steeples and chimneys.
