See Two Art Deco Sculptures in Hollywood


Because Hollywood was the center of early, modern Los Angeles, it's awash in Art Deco buildings and sculpture. These two sculptures were created by Paul Manship, entitled the Flight of Europa. The one sculpture can be viewed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and was modeled in 1925. The same sculpture can been seen in a much larger form in front of the Chase bank (formerly Washington Mutual Bank) at 1500 North Vine Street.
