Polk County, Iowa Courthouse, grotesque faces on the window keystones.  About 30 in all.

The faces are grotesque, but interesting at the same time.  Perhaps what the artest was trying to convey was the different expressions people have on their faces when they go through a court ordeal.

I actually found then quite interesting.  Are you going to try and post all 30?
