[NC Wyeth mural in the] Langham Hotel in Boston

Cafe Society
1

I’ve been trying to find good pictures online of the N.C. Wyeth murals in the Wyeth Room of this hotel (the former Federal Reserve Bank), but to no avail. Does anyone have such pictures? Are any Bostonian Dopers willing to go there and take pictures for me, perchance? I haven’t been to Beantown in 20-some years.

PM me, if so, and many thanks!

One bump…

Let’s see if a more specific thread title and/or a different forum help.

Are these what you are looking for? Not great pictures but at least it’s something.

I am in Boston and could probably get over there but security tends to be pretty tight these days, I don’t know how they would react to someone wandering in off the street and taking photos (sounds like a reasonable thing to do in a hotel but…).

I also don’t have a great camera. I think it would be tough to get a high resolution photo of something so large in what looks like a pretty dark room. Have you tried contacting the hotel to see if they have any publicity photos or something they would be willing to give you?

Thanks - just what I needed! Don’t know why Google Images didn’t come up with those.
