Description
A close-up view of a rusted iron truss bridge, its riveted beams and diagonal cross-brace forming a geometric lattice across the frame, set against a dense backdrop of green foliage with scattered yellow-turning leaves. No sky, water, or figures are visible; the composition centers on the interlocking angles of the ironwork against the wooded hillside. Gelatin silver contact print on baryta paper by Shibata Toshio, 2017, titled *Shibata City, Niigata Prefecture*.
