Chris needed a sanctuary. He drove onto the grounds of the state capitol, parked and turned off the ignition. The marble, unsupported dome on the Minnesota State Capitol became the world’s second largest when finished in 1905. At the base of the dome’s ribs and columns is a stunning golden chariot called the Quadriga. The horses represent water, earth, wind and fire. The ensemble was designed by Daniel French, the sculptor for the Lincoln Memorial.
