Historic Louis Sullivan Farmers and Merchants Union Bank Photography by Todd A. Smith

Recently I photographed the interior of famed architect Louis Sullivan's last "Jewel Box" bank, the Farmers and Merchants Union Bank in Columbus, WI.  Photography was during normal banking hours so I used a minimum of equipment and light.
