Abstract :
“Lighting” was chosen this year as the subject of the annual exhibit of the Academy at Rotterdam, Holland. With the assistance of several organizations, including the Dutch Illuminating Engineering Society, a demonstration of lighting effects and of good and bad lighting as it applied to a number of the more usual services was arranged. The exhibit also included displays relating to lamp manufacture, historical lamps, fixtures and portable lamps. Particular emphasis was placed on the proper use of light in the home, and in this connection the “camouflage” aspect of lighting was prominently featured.
