I love the confidence, too! No apologies for who they are and what they have to offer.

I’ve taken more photos of the Allegorical Window than should be allowed. It’s like I thought I’d catch the figures moving or changing position if I just kept snapping. I agree with you. There are layers to everything if we choose to look.

The elbows thrown up and resting on the back of the bench, instead of hands primly folded. Also, although St. Louis there has her ankles crossed, you can tell from the ankle of her dress her knees are wide. Not exactly manspreading but… I love the confidence.

Allegory’s got such a bad rap from modernism: high concepts/ideas/presences once walked the earth in living form. Even the odd city had its avatar, as here. It’s we who’ve learned not to see or hear them anymore, I suppose.
