The Capitol of Texas building's rotunda features a statuesque cupola and dome.
A view looking up at just the top of the rotunda of the Capitol of Texas building. The top of the rotunda is silhouetted against a blue sky with white and gray cumulus clouds. Three round stories are visible in ascending size from the top. There is a small statue pointing skyward at the very tip. The cupola is round and acts as a base with pillars for the statue. The dome is below that and has small oblong windows about two thirds from the top that surround it. The story below is made of archways with a balcony for its base. The story below has columns that are cut off at the bottom by the bottom of the frame.
