Boston Library Statues 1/2

As promised, these images are not from 50 floors up of Boston, but this time rather of the statues in front of the Boston Library.  The building itself is quite impressive but ironically enough I didn't even get a good image of the whole building. I was more attracted to these statues, the architecture that was behind them, and the flag. This post, and tomorrow's post, show the 5 images of the two statues that I came up with.

Interior of the Library

Here are another couple of images from the interior of the parliamentary library.

The Exterior of the Parliament Library

Having posted one of the pictures from the inside (and with a couple more to come) I thought today's post would show the three photos from the exterior of the Canadian Parliament Library. The exterior was under renovation not that long ago (around the summer of 2005 I believe) and the evidence of this is shown in the copper top of the building. When the colour of the copper is still the colour of copper, the roof is relatively new since the copper has yet to oxidize. Older copper roofs have oxidized and are then a green colour instead.
