Muhammad's Image inside the US Supreme Court
The same Post article wrote, "From Hammurabi to Moses to John Marshall, the stone sculptures commemorate written law as a force for stability in human affairs. The larger-than-life artworks, designed by architectural sculptor Adolph A. Weinman as the courthouse was being built in the early 1930s, convey the idea that, while the law begins with individuals, its principles never die."
The 18 lawgivers looking down on the justices are divided into two
friezes of ivory-colored, Spanish marble. On the south wall, to the right
of incoming visitors, are figures from the pre-Christian era -- Menes,
Hammurabi, Moses, Solomon, Lycurgus, Solon, Draco, Confucius and Octavian
(Caesar Augustus). On the north wall to the left are lawmakers of the Christian
era -- Napoleon Bonaparte, Marshall, William Blackstone, Hugo Grotius,
Louis IX, King John, Charlemagne, Muhammad and Justinian.
Muhammad's image is the third from the far right. The bearded
Prophet is shown with a cap. Justinian is standing next to Mohammad
on the right with a staff on his hand. On extreme right is the image
of three unidentified person including a child.
Muhammad's image is enlarged here. He is on the left.
