Scholars Resource would like to draw your attention to an Image Set:
CDR-1238: SR Set: Art Deco
The exuberance of color and technical innovation radiate from Art Deco examples in this Image Set. The bright red Golden Gate Bridge towering above the Bay in San Francisco; the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings rising high in Manhattan and the bold and colorful decorations around Rockefeller Center speak to the vitality and can-do attitude of the time after the First World War. Creamy, pastel buildings in Miami as well as bold pieces of furniture by Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann and brightly colored ceramics by Susie Cooper round out our group. (updated May 2013)
