Posted on 5:02 AM by babli panday


Chicago Theater: Auditorium..
The auditorium has 3,550 seats, and it's opulent.
For the sake of some sort of organization in imge-postings, I'm diving them as
- Proscenium Arch details
- Wall details
- Ceiling details

- Murals [covered in a seperate post, click here..

CEILING Details..
