[Swan Street entrance, Educational Building] [ca. 1912]

View of a massive, ornate light fixture in front of the Swan Street entrance to the State Education Building in Albany, N.Y. This electrolier was designed by Charles Keck and features zodiac symbols around the column (the Ram, the Bull, the Twins, the Crab, and the Lion can be seen in this photograph) and a ring of alternating owls and light bulbs at the top. The image is undated but may have been taken around the time of building's dedication in November 1912.

1 photograph : b&w ; 12 x 17 cm., on mount 17 x 22 cm.
