Here's a description of the image:

Overall Impression:

The image is a historical photograph, captured in an inverted negative format (likely from a glass plate negative). This gives it a stark, high-contrast appearance, with the light and dark values reversed. It depicts an urban scene, likely a train station or similar transportation hub.

Key Features and Elements:

  • Overhead Structure: The focal point appears to be a complex structure of overhead walkways and possibly railway lines.
  • Advertisements: There are visible signs, including advertisements.
  • Buildings: Other buildings are visible, a small control tower, and a long building.
  • Railway or Transit: A railway track runs through the scene, and a train is visible, possibly a train or trolley.
  • Date: The date "June 8.11" is on the lower right of the image, providing a clue to its historical context.
  • Signage: The signs indicate the availability of "crackers", "biscuit" and "shoes."
  • Viewpoint: The photographer seems to be positioned above the street, looking down at the scene.
  • Composition: The image is well-composed, with the bridge and train tracks leading the eye through the scene.

Inferred Information:

  • Location: The title "New Steel work S.of Sulluian Sq. Station" implies it's a view of the new steel work near Sullivan Square station.

In Summary: The image provides a fascinating snapshot of transportation infrastructure and urban life, offering a glimpse into a historical period.

Here is a description of the image:

This is an inverted image, likely from an old photographic negative, showing a street scene with overhead rail infrastructure and advertising signs. The scene appears to be bustling with activity.

In the foreground, a tram or trolley car is visible, and overhead steelwork structures, possibly for elevated trains or stations, dominate. Numerous supports and beams create a geometric pattern of shadows on the street below.

In the background, advertising signs are visible, including one for "A CRACKER...a Biscuit" selling for 5 cents. Another advertises "STANDARD MILK" and encourages people to "Buy SHOES Bearing This STAMP".

Telegraph poles with numerous wires crisscross above the street, adding to the urban setting.

Handwritten notes appear at the bottom of the image, one reading "New Steel work S.of Sulluian Sa. Stalón" suggesting the photo may document new construction. The second notes "June 8.11" likely indicating the date of the photograph. The number "9144" is also written.
