“The second image doesn’t show much, but if look closely in the foreground you will see the sullivan-designed mosaic floor exposed after the old carpet was pulled. early descriptions of the schiller building indicate the use of mosaic floors in the lobby area but only a few half-tones exist (outside of the auditorium) and the visual information isn’t very satisfactory.”
