Summary
The U.S. Justice Department has removed curtains that were blocking the view of Art Deco aluminum statues of semi-nude figures in the building's Great Hall after more than three years. The move to cover the "Spirit of Justice" and the "Majesty of Justice" statues, which was made during the previous administration, had sparked controversy and become a subject of late-night comedians' jokes.
