This is Carol M. Highsmith. I spent many long hours in the Library of Congress Thomas Jefferson Building photographing the art. One morning, I looked out the window and there was a beautiful view of the Capitol. I quickly set up lights and captured the shot. I worked in the Thomas Jefferson Building for two years documenting all the art on the walls.
I am donating my collection copyright-free.
