Pennsylvania Station

A sepia-toned photograph capturing the interior of a grand building with tall columns and large windows casting dramatic shadows. In the foreground, a prominent ornate candelabra stands, while in the background, several people appear to be walking or standing, engaged in various activities. The atmosphere is serene and steeped in history.
