Bibliothèque d’Étude et du Patrimoine, Toulouse, France.

During the economic slump of the 1930s, Toulouse's socialist city council embarked on a series of large civic projects. A key element of its public education initiative was a new library, built by city architect Jean Montariol and completed in 1935. The vast reading room is decorated with frescoes by Marc Saint-Saens.

@concretelibraries One of my favourite libraries. What a shame some of the carvings on the facade were never completed.

@via interesting detail, thanks for sharing!
