I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. SCAPIN_070702_037.JPG: "Coal Miner" (1966) John H. Szaton
2. SCAPIN_070702_040.JPG: "Coal Miner" (1966) John H. Szaton: The original cast of this sculpture was made as a result of a bill introduced in the legislature of the State of Illinois by Representative Paul Powell. The bill requested the appropriation of $15,000 for the creation of a monument to honor Illinois coal miners. The figural design was derived by Szaton from a painting of the same subject by Vachel Davis, a coal miner, poet and artist, and the first cast was installed in Tinley Park, Illinois, in 1964. In 1965, a second cast was commissioned by the Indiana General Assembly. This piece was cast in 1966 and dedicated in 1967 on the grounds of the Indiana State House.

7. SCAPIN_070702_070.JPG: "Thomas A. Hendricks" (1890) Richard Henry Park: This sculpture commemorates Thomas A. Hendricks (1819-1885), who practiced law in Shelbyville, Indiana, before seeking public office. The central figure, a heroic portrait statue of Hendricks, is flanked by two allegorical female figures. "Justice" on the left, is indicated by the sword she holds (her scales are missing), and "Enlightenment," on the right, is shown with her tablet and book. Hendricks served as governor of Indiana, as a United States senator and as vice-president of the United States. He also laid the cornerstone of the current Indiana State House. In 1884, Hendricks was elected vice-president under Grover Cleveland. On November 15, 1885, nine months into his term, Hendricks died at his home in Indianapolis.

Wikipedia Description: Indiana Statehouse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Indiana Statehouse (or State House) is the state capitol building of the U.S. state of Indiana. Housing the Indiana General Assembly, the Governor of Indiana, the state courts, and other state officials, it is located in the state capital Indianapolis at 200 West Washington Street.

A team of commissioners, including former Civil War general and civil engineer Thomas A. Morris, planned and oversaw the project. The design of Indianapolis architect Edwin May was selected in 1878, and a cornerstone was laid on September 28, 1880. Construction was completed in October 1888, supervised by architect Adolph Scherrer, May's chief draftsman, following May's death in February 1880.

Previous State Capitols:

When Indiana first became a state in 1816, the capital was located in Corydon. The Old Capitol Building there is now a state historic site. In 1825, the general assembly moved the capital to Indianapolis and met in the Marion County Courthouse. In 1831, the general assembly authorized construction of a state house on the same site as the current state house. This building, designed by the firm of Ithiel Town and Alexander Jackson Davis, had a design inspired by the Greek Parthenon and opened circa 1840. By the 1860s, it was becoming dilapidated, and it was demolished in 1877 to make way for the current building.
