World's largest oil painting |
800 Cherokee Ave SE (in Grant Park) Atlanta, GA 30304 +1 404 658 7625 http://www.webguide.com/cyclorama.html |
Outside the gates of Zoo Atlanta on the grounds of Grant Park stands a stark, white marble structure housing the world's largest oil painting, the Atlanta Cyclorama. Painted in 1885-86, the Cyclorama is a 365-degree mural depicting the Battle of Atlanta, which in 1864 helped doom the South's fate during the American Civil War. A collection of artifacts and historical documents rounds out the museum, but the focus is on the one-of-a-kind centerpiece. Guided tours are available daily. Admission is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and $3 for kids. Review © 2009, Wcities |
