Description
English:

Audiences were fascinated with the decor of the new Fifth Avenue Theatre. Its brightly-painted woodwork had been inspired by traditional Chinese decorated wood structures in Beijing's Forbidden City. The Asian theme was in keeping with Seattle's position as a gateway for Pacific trade.
