Description
Photograph of a roller rink floor, ca.1920. An interior view of a roller rink shows how the empty floor shimmers by the lights in the ceiling. Two large ornamental lights hang from the ceiling in the center of the image, one in the foreground and one in the background. The ceiling is made of a reflective metallic like material that drapes across the large room. Cylindrical shaped lights run along the ceiling towards the back while decorative conical objects with three tiers stand on the balcony that rests above the floor.
