The image is a vintage postcard view of the Carousel Lounge at the Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The Carousel Bar is New Orleans' only revolving bar, and it first opened in 1949.
The bar itself features 25 seats and subtly rotates, completing a full rotation every 15 minutes.
This specific decor, with its mid-century modern style, is from the bar's earlier years, as it has been updated over the decades.
The historic hotel and its famous bar are known literary landmarks, having hosted authors like Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee Williams, and Truman Capote.
