Long Description:
This bust of George Washington can be found on a balcony on the mezzanine level of the Washington State Capitol, overlooking the central rotunda. I could find no information about the sculpture other than it is popular to rub his nose for luck (hence the shine.)

The state, which joined the Union in 1889, is the only state named for a former president.

Capitol Way and 14th
