Description
Two elegant chandeliers hang from the art deco tiled ceiling of the Lakefront Airport in New Orleans, LA. One of several murals by artist Xavier Gonzalez, friezes by Enrique R. Alferez and an array of stone wall and floors accompany these amazing luminous suspended light fixtures. After Hurricane Katrina's effects flooded the airport, renovating crews got to work to bring this art deco wonder back to its original look. And a great job they did. This airport remains a functional airport for private planes and smaller jets as well as for some military aircraft.

OMG, Gorgeous Work. Kathleen, this is a fantastic work of several kinds of art you have captured just in this one building. Well done, and congratulations on your feature to Old Masters Forum. P.S. I have learned something new today from you. Plus You have sparked my interest now, I will make sure my husband and I will be coming to New Orleans, LA to see this and the other wonderful artwork/architecture there too.
