Description
Man's imaginative and inventive development, 1935, Santa Monica College library, 1900 Pico Boulevard (between 16th and 29th Streets). Originally, 38 panels of this mural covering 2000 square feet filled all four walls in the main reading room of the Santa Monica Public Library. When the library building was demolished in 1974, the entire art work was placed in storage in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Currently (as of 1998), only this one lunette is on display locally. In it the widespread dissemination of knowledge is represented by the meeting of land and sea caravans from different parts of the world. By Stanton Macdonald Wright. Sponsored by PWAP and FERA -- Dunitz, Street gallery, p.157, #2.
