A broad concrete arch spans the road in this black and white view of the Natchez Trace Parkway, where the pavement runs straight beneath it. The parkway follows the route of the old Natchez Trace, a corridor of footpaths that linked the Mississippi settlements near Natchez with Nashville. Federal planners began building it in the late 1930s as a scenic road, and its bridges were designed to sit quietly in the wooded countryside. Without color, the eye settles on the curve of the arch and the open lines of the roadway.
