Comments: Here is a close-up of the base relief sculpture immediately above the statue you have just studied in the previous image.
Humanities questions: What do the two items depicted in the four spaces look like to you? What other things have these kinds of images on paintings, banners, or flags? What country sponsored the design and creation of this building? Therefore, what do these images symbolize? That is, what did they symbolize when the building was founded, built, and rebuilt? (Hint: in part, these symbols are still operative; or, to what degree are they still operative?)
