I did a walking tour of the Rockefeller Plaza and was astounded by the significance of the murals in the GE Building. To be honest, when I first walked in the building, I thought it was slightly dated with the gold/ black and it reminded me of the 80s. After hearing about the history of the murals and what they represented, Junior Rockefeller and his wife, Abby did a an amazing job capturing the struggles of life at that time.. some struggles which unfortunately the world still deals with today.
