Penstocks of a hydroelectric power station, 1937

Beneath the steel lattice of a high-voltage pylon, a bank of six huge riveted pipes runs straight down a wooded mountainside; in close view the penstocks pass through a massive concrete anchor block and continue downhill side by side. The pipes resemble those of the Walchensee power station in Upper Bavaria, which Oskar von Miller completed in 1924 and which dropped the water of a mountain lake some 200 metres to its turbines.
