Description

5-image HDR, f/22, ISO 80, Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8 @ 15mm.
The Indiana State Capitol, the Statehouse, has been the seat of Indiana’s government since 1887 and is perhaps the grandest 19th-century Neo-Classical Revival building in Indiana. The building is designed in the shape of a cross. A magnificent central rotunda with a glass domed ceiling connects the four wings. The interior was carefully restored in the late 1980s and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
