Description
Photograph of workers preparing tables for a banquet, [s.d.]. A long room can be seen stretching far into the distance at center. Large arched windows line both walls, and two rows of round tables can be seen on either side of the room. The floor is covered with checkered tiles. Each table has a light table cloth and settings for four people. Several uniformed people can be seen adjusting the tables in the background, while tow people in suits supervise at left. Chandeliers hang from the ceiling. Compares to CHS-37261, which shows a similar scene with the workers in a slightly different position.
