Bildbeschreibung
The image shows a bridge crossing a waterfall with workers on it. There is no horizon shown. The focus is on the waterfall and the bridge. The brushstrokes are smooth, depicting the water and rocks. Earth tones dominate, with splashes of blue and white in the water and sky, and a rainbow in the mist. A figure in a cloak sits on the rocks in the foreground.
