Amerigo the Beautiful

Description

A carving on the Witherspoon Building on Walnut Street in Philadelphia. Probably there aren't a LOT of people scanning the old, tall, urban buildings. This building is encrusted with magnificent carvings of men who shaped the world. This is Amerigo Vespucci, the Italian navigator after whom America was named. The carvings are in need of repair work.
