Dyptic of Justice and Law

In my attempt to be fresh in seeing something new in old iconic structures, I decided to present the sculptures sitting in front of the Supreme Court Building in Washington D.C. as a dyptic. On the left is the statue "Authority of Law" and on the right "Contemplation of Justice". I like the simplicity of seeing just the statues themselves without the clutter of the building's facade and portico. The statement is great with their united balance. I hope we keep these things in mind as we work on the issues that warrant the function of our Supreme Court in this nation.
