Yesterday’s Architeaser was a cornice on the eastern exterior of the Arkansas State Capitol building. The building was completed in 1915 though it was first occupied in 1911. It was based on a design by architect George Mann though other architects and contractors were involved in modifications during the 16 year construction period.  The exterior is largely limestone quarried in Batesville.

Here is today’s Architeaser, which shows the wonders that glass can do in reflecting and refracting images when used in architecture.
