Photograph of Mural Cleaning in the Rotunda

from U.S. National Archives

• Cara Finnegan said:

  Are you certain this is in the rotunda? I've checked usual sources and can't seem to figure out which mural they are cleaning.

• The U.S. National Archives said:

  I believe it's the Declaration mural by Barry Faulkner in the rotunda. Here's a link to info on the two rotunda murals: www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/charters_murals.html and here's a closer view of the Declaration mural: www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/charters_mural_declara.... - Jill U.S. National Archives

from The Library of Congress

• John Guarino said:

  Wikipedia had a very interesting write up about him. I hadn't been aware of him.

• jessamyn west said:

  Oh thanks for this, I was curious about Seelbinder and there wasn't much about her online so I wrote this Wikipedia article. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxine_Merlino

• Hanna (LOC P&P) said:

  A surveyor and farmer, Benjamin Banneker assisted Major Andrew Ellicott with the survey establishing the original borders of the District of Columbia in 1791. From 1792 to 1797, Banneker wrote almanacs, using his astronomy skills to predict long-range weather patterns.
