The World's Most Beautiful Places
A winter sunset along the Ohio River as seen from the Big Four Bridge in Jeffersonville, Indiana. In the distance one can see the Abraham Lincoln Bridge and the John F. Kennedy Memorial Bridge which collectively handle the traffic of I-65 traffic coming down from Indianapolis and up from Nashville, Tennesse. Beyond that is downtown Louisville, Kentucky’s largest city.
A close-up view of the pediment of the Kentucky State Capitol building in Frankfort. The stone carved figures, starting with the woman at the center, allegorically represent Progress, History, Plenty, Law, Art and Labor. The roman-styled portico of the capitol building was designed by Charles Henry Niehaus and carved by Australian sculptor Peter Rossack.
The monument is a copy of Marie Antoinette’s Temple of Love, in the gardens at the Palace of Versailles in Paris. It was dedicated to Florence Brokaw Martin Satterwhite, who died in 1927, by her husband Preston Pope Satterwhite, a wealthy surgeon.
