Panama Canal Construction, 1913 looks into a vast excavation cut, its terraced rock walls and rail spurs threading a working floor where crews laboured across the isthmus a year before the canal opened to traffic. The photograph belongs to the documentary record of the American construction era, when cutting a channel through the continental divide was the largest earth-moving effort yet attempted.
