Cinema Dumont, Art Nouveau movie theater in Milan, Italy
The Cinema Dumont building displays a rectangular layout with floral ornaments on its facade and decorative columns at the entrance on Via Frisi.
Between 1908 and 1910, architects Ferdinando Tettamanzi and Giovanni Mainetti constructed this structure as one of Milan's first dedicated cinema buildings.
The cinema's French-sounding name was selected to give the establishment a sophisticated European character during the early days of cinematography.
The entrance hall now functions as the Venezia Library, while the former auditorium space has been converted into a multi-level parking facility.
The structure survived World War II bombardments intact and served various purposes, including a Red Cross ambulance garage and car showroom.
