This remarkable artwork, displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, captures a pivotal moment during the construction of the Panama Canal.

It symbolizes not only man's triumph over nature but also his relentless pursuit of progress and connectivity. The canal itself serves as a vital link between continents, facilitating water transport and fostering economic growth for South America. Pennell's lithotint technique adds depth and texture to the print, enhancing its visual impact. Through his masterful use of light and shadow, he brings life to every detail - from the intricate machinery to the shimmering waters below. This print stands as a testament to our shared heritage - reminding us of humanity's ability to overcome challenges through innovation and collaboration.
