Within the walls of this distinguished residence, lies a remarkable 1930s hidden fresco, concealed for decades and believed to be attributed to Bolivian-born artist Antonio Sotomayor. His esteemed murals adorn notable landmarks such as The Palace Hotel, Grace Cathedral, and The Bohemian Club. This exquisite fresco may have been completed in collaboration with his assistant Mona Hofmann, renowned for her association with Diego Rivera.
