Pettit, after Harry McEwen, Carnegie Steel Company Duquesne Works, 1929, color photographic print on paper, mounted to a backing board, 20 x 80 inches, in a period gilt wood frame 25 x 84 inches. A rare panoramic image showing a large and bustling mill in its heyday. The original painting by Pettit was a 4 x 15 foot mural done in his trademark birds eye view style. It was recovered in 1998 in a trash bin at the Duquesne Works site by a steelworker, and now hangs in the Detre Library and Archives at the Heinz History Center.
