Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Water Transportation, one of a set of fifteen murals by William Mark Young, shown and described in a brochure published to accompany the Ohio State Exhibit at the 1933 A Century of Progress International Exhibition (aka "Chicago World's Fair"). The murals were subsequently relocated to the Ohio Statehouse.

The accompanying description reads: "In this mural is depicted the progress made since the primitive bringing into the Ohio country of the pioneer by early flat boats and pirogues.

From this we progress to the Ohio river packet with the typical group awaiting its landing; the tow boat carrying millions of tons of freight each year; then the modern lake steamer and the modern ore boat with the attendant colossal loading and unloading docks. "
