Cincinnati: Union Terminal
The magnificent Winold Reiss glass-tile murals in Union Terminal's main entry are part of what is thought to be the nation's largest-ever art commission at the time. Twenty-two feet high, the and the men and women on them soar overhead, simultaneously leading the eye and encouraging it to linger on the artwork.
As you can probably guess, the murals follow Cincinnati's progress on the right, and the nation's on the left. Note also the inclusion of various forms of transportation and how they change over the years.
In my opinion, these murals alone are worth stopping by the Terminal to see!
