Main Gallery, Date Unknown

Notice also that there seems to be construction going on--the exposed circuit boxes in the walls--and that there used to be a bay on the north side of the gallery wall. In other old photos that I have seen, there appears to have been an entrance on that side of the building. (One can see today where some old windows were bricked up at one time.) I like the old light fixtures as well.
But look at the way the crowd is dressed--how the world has changed.

The light fixtures are nice -- but not many of the paintings are well lit.
And isn't that Tor standing with his elbow on the fireplace ?
I think I can make out some other familiar faces, too, clustered around the appetizers and the drinks, shovelling in the free grub.
The lighting is terrible, but the light fixtures are cool.
This photo is from 1935.
