Description
The Los Angeles Central Library was built in 1926 in the Art Deco architectural style with Mediterranean Revival and Egyptian influences.
The crown jewel is this rotunda with its Zodiac Chandelier and 4 massive murals, each 40 feet wide, created by artist Dean Cornwell.
Each one depicts an important piece of California history: the Era of Discovery, the Building of the Missions, Founding of the Pueblo of Los Angeles and the Americanization of California.
