Main Entrance

  • "The Night's Watch" (5 successes)

The Small Lower Gallery is decorated with banners and flags that accord with the event being held at the time. When no lecture or debate is going on, the Small Lower Gallery is closed.

The Grand Lower Gallery is decorated in the style of a Cabinet of Wonders, with paintings covering every wall from floor to ceiling. The amateur works that only barely made the cut have been hung near the ceiling and floor, as padding, whereas the works of Di Grimani, Berthe Morisot, Sir Luke Fildes and Gustave Courbet have been displayed in very prominent places, with large frames.

Railings have been placed along the floors and wall, with four futuristic metal stairs (with guard rails!) placed at an incline. These can be carted around the room along the railing to look at specific paintings that are higher up. When properly positioned, they can also be used to reach a podium set at the far end of the room, which reaches about halfway up. A state-of-the-art telescope can also be used to view the art from this unique vantage point.

The flyer also notes that this exhibit includes a new work, "The Sculptor in his Studio", which was painted by Di Grimani and belongs to Mr. Morris.
