About this photo
The focus is a large, old book on a conveyor belt. The book is about to enter a shredding machine, with shredded paper already accumulating in a bin below. The mood is industrial and a bit somber, highlighting the destruction of historical artifacts. A stack of similar old books is visible in the background, along with shelves full of more books. There is a yellow and black hazard stripe on the machine.
