Description
The Authority Of Law statue at the United States Supreme Court in Washington DC. The Latin word for law "LEX" is inscribed on the tablet. The sculptor James Earle Fraser described “Authority of Law” as “powerful, erect, and vigilant. He waits with concentrated attention, holding in his left hand the tablet of laws, backed by the sheathed sword, symbolic of enforcement through law.”
