One cannot help but be drawn to the Arena theater, its grand facade standing proudly amidst its surroundings. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, we discover that it was taken in December 1916 or early 1917 when movies were playing at Arena theater. This detail adds another layer of intrigue and nostalgia to an already captivating composition.
