Description
In the late 1930s, Louis Ross completed work on the mural entitled “Cyclorama of Handicrafts” for the classroom in the Psychiatric Building of Bellevue Hospital. Ross was one of over a dozen artists commissioned by the Federal Art Project arm of the Works Progress Administration (WPA/FAP) to paint a series of murals for the Psychiatric Building at Bellevue Hospital.
The Living New Deal needs further information to determine the current status of the “Cyclorama of Handicrafts” mural that Louis Ross painted for Bellevue Hospital.
