Looking Up at the Palace of Fine Arts

This photo shows the intricate details of the ceiling of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. The ceiling is made of plaster and is decorated with cherubs, flowers, and other classical motifs.

I remember standing directly beneath the Palace of Fine Arts dome in San Francisco, looking straight up at the geometric patterns. The warm, golden light made the structure glow against the night sky.
