For a field trip, we went to Sacramento to see the capitol building. This picture is of the office of the governor of California in 1906.
There is an old lamp that the governor used. There were alarms between the two sides of the door, so we couldn't go in for a closer look.
This is the seal of California. "Eureka!" means "I've found it!" Also, "Eureka!" is the state motto.
The woman is the Greek goddess of war and wisdom called Minerva. The California grizzly bear is the state bear.
The seal was on the ceiling. It's stained glass.
