"Birth of power"
subject: Niagara Falls (N.Y.)--Pictorial works
description: "The Birth of Power" This colorful mural from the masterly brush of Willy Pogany greets thousands who annually visit the Schoellkopf Station of the Niagara Falls Power Company. This allegorical painting tells in vivid and powerful tone, but with eerie lightness, the romantic birth story of humanity's modern servant—electrical power. Torrents of energy tumble into the eddying pool of human waves from which emerge two poles imparting the spark of life into the giant genie—POWER. —Edward Dean Adams, 1927
description: A colorful artwork depicting a large red figure at the center, dynamically posed against a blue background with rays extending from above. Below, two smaller figures—one in pale tones and the other in reddish hues—reach upward, connected by glowing orbs. On either side of the central figure are vertical decorative elements resembling waterfalls or cascading textures.
