Man Carries Unconscious Woman in Futuristic Power Tower – Amazing Stories Jan 1932

A man clutches an unconscious woman against a towering red cylindrical control tower, gazing upward in desperation as the vast machinery of a colossal futuristic power station spirals around them — arched galleries, glowing conduits, and enormous mechanical structures receding into a misty industrial infinity. Something has gone catastrophically wrong inside this technological cathedral, and he is the last one standing. This is cover art for Harl Vincent's 'Power,' and every brushstroke screams imminent catastrophe.
