Artist's Description

Even long after retirement, this cable and pulley system holds up the rusty boom of an old crane in Alameda, California.

The block and tackle pulley system is thought to have been invented by Archimedes, the Greek inventor, mathematician, physicist, engineer, and astronomer. There is no documented date of the invention, but it is estimated it was invented around 250 B.C. The lifting force is multiplied by the number of times the cable runs though the block.

About Darin Volpe

Darin Volpe

I have been photographing the things I see for over thirty years. A resident of San Luis Obispo County, I'm lucky to have many excellent photo destinations within a few minutes' or hours' drive. Beyond the local area, I have traveled throughout California and the western United States, visited far away American destinations such as Chicago, New York, Florida, and Alaska, and international destinations in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. My photography varies from Architecture to Industrial Art to Nature to Wildlife and I'm sure you'll find something suitable for your home or office. Visit my blog
