Gone: ‘Justice’ Mural Is Dismantled And Presumably Destroyed
Angelo di Benedetto’s mural “Justice Through The Ages,” which has hung on the Colorado Supreme Court building since its construction in 1977, is no more, Law Week Colorado reports.
A plastic sheet atop the mural’s scaffolding was peeled back, revealing only exposed trusses. Law Week Colorado photographer Jamie Cotten captured the image above at approximately 4:55 p.m. Thursday.
At the time of its installation, di Benedetto’s work was the largest figurative mural in the United States. The building upon which it was affixed is being torn down to make way for the new Ralph L. Carr Judicial Complex.
