Arkansas State Capitol
Architect George R. Mann's design for the Arkansas State Capitol, located in Little Rock, Arkansas, United States. The image is labeled as the Montana State Capitol because it was the winning entrant in the first design competition for that building. It was never actually built, and Mann resubmitted it for the Arkansas building.Restoration: Jake Wartenberg


The Scale-Model Myth

[edit]

It is an often repeated myth that the Arkansas State Capitol is a scale model of the U.S. Capitol because they both feature prominent monumental domes. A side-by-side photographic comparison will show that the Arkansas dome is neo-classical revival in style, has a much more conical shape, has fewer tiers and is significantly less ornate than the U.S. Capitol.
