![This is a square image of a detail within larger batik. It is a close-up detail from the bottom right, middle but next to corner of a large, rectangular, horizontal mural, The World of Radio, created in multiple warm colors. The muted earth tones encapsulate a stylized, semi-realistic nearly monochrome scene of a memorial service made of geometric shapes and highly detailed forms paired with random decorative elements. The service itself is framed in circle and depicts First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt placing a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. A guard looks on from the side of the Tomb, and behind her, President Franklin D. Roosevelt stands onlooking with two flanking guards. There is a modest crowd in the background, and a long banner among tree branches that reads [Arlington]. The circle is surrounded by other mural decoration patterns and scenes: the triangular frame of the batik along the bottom, ruffles and textile patterns of two giant statue's dresses to the left and top right, and frame edges of other individual scenes to the top left and bottom right. These other scenes and statue elements are all on different scales and planes, with their own unique patterns and vignettes. Despite these differences, they are all unified by the subdued earthen color and semi-realistic but stylized renderings.](https://images.collection.cooperhewitt.org/309226_02d21145821d8eb2_n.jpg "Mural Detail, The World of Radio, 1934")
