"Two boys appear seated on a broken pediment in the center of which rests an elaborate cartouche, on which is carved an open book between two flaming Roman torches. They wear small, wind-blown capes which resemble wings as they grin down upon the pedestrians entering below. Each boy holds a symbol of theworld of knowledge, one a book and the other a globe." Goode, James M., "The Outdoor Sculpture of Washington, D.C., A Comprehensive Historical Guide," Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1974.
