This is the big staircase in the atrium of the East Building of the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC. Normally hidden because of crowds, I was fortunate to be inside during renovation to glimpse it and the mobile with no people in the frame!

@caity first time I saw it - it came complete with butt cracks! 😳 There had been some sort of problem early on and the maintenance crew were inside the space fixing stuff.

I have since revisited it on several occasions. Interesting during the day but glorious at night.

This is a big hole (intentional) in the ceiling above the main entrance of the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC [USA].

I call it the "oculus", but some people use that for the hole in the top of the rotunda dome (as in the dome of the Pantheon, in Rome.)

Either way, it's fun.
