Chandelier inside the Monte Carlo Casino
A crystal chandelier hangs under a gilded arch in a dim hall of the Monte Carlo Casino, its candle bulbs glowing against dark marble. Heavy curtains are drawn back from a tall window that looks out onto a balustrade and a bright garden of palms. Low armchairs and a floor lamp with a shade sit in silhouette in front. Warm shadows inside, daylight outside, and an old-world kind of elegance.
