The Palace of Fine Arts

 



The Palace of Fine Arts

The last remaining structure of the Panama-Pacific Exhibition

In 1915, John D. Barry, wrote of the Panama-Pacific Exhibition in the San Francisco Bulletin: “Though the Exposition had been designed to commemorate the services of the United States Army in building the Panama Canal, it was essentially dedicated to the arts of peace. It would show what the world could do when men and nations co-operated.”
