WatchPhotos - Fine Arts Commission, Series G Free
The Commission of Fine Arts was established in 1910 to guide the architectural development of the nation's capital on matters of design and aesthetics as they affect the Federal interest and preserve the dignity of the city. Photographs in this series go beyond DC and include cities like Boston and Chicago, as well as monuments, sculptures, and presidential portraits. Subjects and headings are very broad. If you find a photo that you can identify more fully, annotate it so others may find it more easily.…More
