This black-and-white photograph depicts the Red River in a flooded stage, the waters reaching the bottom of the bridge with cars racing over it in the foreground and consuming some of the buildings in the background. The photograph, mounted on a piece of paperboard, has a handwritten inscription on the front beneath the photograph as well as an inscription on the backside: “Flood in 1897” on the front, and "Red River in Flood Fargo + Moorhead" 1897".
