What you do if you need a picture of an aqueduct is that you google for 
an image with the search term 'aqueduct'. Yours is number ten on the 
hitlist and the first that is not one of the big outdoor constructions. 
Everything else on the first page is clearly a photograph or a drawing. 
So, what would a lazy researcher trigger to investigate the nature of 
the image?
