The image is a black and white photograph of a railway bridge under construction. The bridge is made of steel trusses and appears to be in the process of being built. It is a large, rectangular structure with multiple levels and arches. The truss bridge is supported by a brick wall on the right side and a pile of rubble on the left side. There are several workers visible on the bridge, some of whom are working on the construction site. The sky is visible in the background. The photograph is captioned "Die durch deutsche und österreichische Pioniere wiederhergestellte Eisenbahnbrücke bei Plühöw in Ostgänzen" which translates to "The construction of the railway bridge in the early 20th century" in English.
