Notes: Centennial Hall is actually the amalgam of different buildings constructed at different times. One stage of the structure, which people called the Exposition Building, dates to 1905. The remainder was developed in 1935 and 1936 in advance of the Centennial Exposition. The structure's three substantial porticoes and its monumental statues reflect the "Texanic" style that architect George Dahl developed for many of the buildings constructed for the exposition. Designed by Jose Martin, the female figure out front represents the Republic of Texas.; Title, date, and keywords based on information provided by the photographer.; Gift; The Lyda Hill Foundation; 2014; (DLC/PP-2014:054).; Forms part of: Lyda Hill Texas Collection of Photographs in Carol M.
