25 Cents EXAMPLES OF RECENT MURAL DECORATION
The following six illustrations are selected from a set of
sixteen mural paintings executed by Lawrence C. Earle, Montclair, New
Jersey, for the Chicago National Bank Building, Chicago. They are painted on
canvas, sixteen feet long by nine feet high, and are set in segmental frames
over great panels of Pavanazzo marble, the paintings being secured by a
small gilt molding. The room is one hundred and thirty-five feet long,
eighty feet wide, and forty-four feet high, and is sumptuous in its
appointments in every particular. Mr. Earle's paintings are the most
interesting feature of the decoration, though decidedly not the most costly.
Symbolism, which so often finds its way into mural paintings, has been
eschewed, and the canvases instead present scenes in the history of the city
in which the building is located.
