The Sherry-Netherland Lobby

The Sherry-Netherland was designed as an alter ego to the sumptuous Plaza Hotel across Fifth Avenue. At the Plaza, all was showy magnificence: huge halls, lofty ceilings, acres of marble and gilt. At The Sherry, the lobby was inspired by parts of the Vatican Library, but in miniature, elegant but restrained.
