"...Ugliest building on the Mississippi River" ~ Mark Twain

[theantiquetiger]

That is how Mark Twain described the old State Capitol building here in Baton Rouge. It was built in 1850's and was the Capitol until the 1930's.

Well I was expecting worse to be honest. I can see what Mark Twain is talking about though, looks as though the style is trying to hard. A more simplistic approach might have worked better. Great capture of it though!
