In the Pudong Development Bank on the Bund in Shanghai above the marbled columned floor there is a dome where there are paintings depicting what and why?

I found this in an article in the Los Angeles times from someone who had just been. "We moved on to the Hong Kong Shanghai Bank, now the Pudong Development Bank. High up in the entry dome, layers of paint were removed to reveal an elaborate mosaic picturing the world's trading capitals, the zodiac and scenes from Greek mythology, another reminder of Shanghai's 1920s opulence." While I was browsing through other sites I found a lovely quote from the Chinanow website which describes the Shanghai trains like this :- "These mobile mosh pits are a pickpockets paradise" Did you find that , Mochyn?

Which bank's tagline is "Old Fashioned Banking. New Fashioned Technology" (Industrial Development Bank, Karur Vysya Bank, Dena Bank, or Development Credit Bank)? What is said to be unusual about Renaissance paintings depicting the Last Supper? A dome twice as big as the Millennium Dome was built in the 1990's to house aircraft. Where is it and what is it now used for? Why does no building in the world have the thirteenth floor?
