A painted cutaway of the dam

Between stylised walls of dark red rock, a painted cutaway drawing shows the white arch of the dam, the blue reservoir behind it with a tall intake tower cut open to reveal its shafts, and the pipes descending through the canyon wall to the powerhouse at the foot of the dam, where the tailwater runs out in blue. Four intake towers draw water from the lake into the penstocks.
