Pylons and switchgear below the mountains, 1937

Steel lattice gantries strung with insulators stand in a row above a large building with a steep tiled roof and dormer windows, at the foot of forested mountains with limestone crags; the view tilts up past the gantries to the clouds and ends on their arched ironwork against the sky. Electricity from the Alpine rivers was one of the proud achievements of Bavarian engineering, and the regime used it in its own propaganda.
