Majesty in Saint Paul
Oil on canvas 48" x 33" - 2005
The Minnesota Capitol Building, completed in 1914, located on a hill overlooking downtown Saint Paul and the Mississippi river valley, is noted internationally for its architectural excellence. One of the best views of this building is from Cass Gilbert Park, named after the building’s architect.
In the distance is another architectural masterpiece, the Cathedral of Saint Paul. It was completed in 1915. This impressionistic painting depicts morning’s first light upon Saint Paul’s landscape.
