The final day in Denver was a day for art! And what a day it
was, too. The Denver Art Museum is a two building-two block behemuth of art and
culture. I was so excited that I arrived about 30 minutes before it opened just
to spend some time in the area of the museum and state capitol where there is
also a lovely park--"Civic Center Park".
The Colorado State Capitol.
The opposite end of the park is home to the Denver City
Civic Building.
This fountain is part of this grand loggia called the
Voorhees Memorial to Denver built in 1919.
A statue of the "Bronco Buster" to honor all the men who
helped tame the west....irony understood.
And this counter statue represents the dignity of Native
Americans.
"Wheel" appellation to follow.
The current special exhibition:
"The Western".
The entire South Building is a work of art.
