Court of Palms_The City of Domes : a walk with an architect about the courts and palaces of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, with a discussion of its architecture, its sculpture, its mural decorations, its coloring and its lighting, preceded by a history of its growth

Court of Palms, illumination of towers from searchlights. Only direct

light, from single white globes painted to imitate Travertine, and Roman

hanging lamps around in corridors; faint red shines through from below.

Reflections in circular and rectangular pools; north, east, and west

portals; the columns, the colonnades at sides of entrances, the murals

above doorways; pinks, blues, reds, orange.

Murals above east, west, and north doorways, best effect at night.

Illumination at base of arches throws light on upper part of mural,

shading softly and gradually down to base.
