![A heroic vision of the mythological figure of Mercury, the Roman god of commerce and a messenger, flying diagonally from upper right to lower left, in a silvery grey and white, against a light brown background. His arms are extended, gathering air waves -- portrayed as a series of four parallel curved lines with irregular jagged movement -- emanating from the bottom left corner of the Art Deco image. Mercury is classically depicted in the nude with a lean muscularity, is shown with his right leg tightly bent with the foot tucked underneath, while the left leg is almost fully extended. Both feet feature short wings extruding from the ankle bone, giving him the advantage of speed as well as a sleek appearance. This is depicted with his long hair swept backward, under which a cape-like trail illustrates his path. His face is punctuated with a triangular nose and intense, dark eyes; his mouth is open. Motifs of parallel, curved lines, grouped at its initiating points, are splayed across the image. The background scene is punctuated with small celestial bodies of varying stars and planets. Four small images of stands are irregularly spaced along the bottom of the piece; thin, vertical lines extend from the two middle stands, giving the piece the appearance of three panels. Along the top is the text [Communication Hall] in capital letters, with the appearance of a carved etching. The commission, designed for sandblasted glass and intended for the Radio and Communication Building at the 1933 fair was never executed.](https://images.collection.cooperhewitt.org/309967_1bbc31ddc97515c2_n.jpg "Drawing, Design for Sand-Blasted Glass Mural: Mercury Gathering Air Waves Amidst Planets and Stars")
