Keyes of Casper (formerly Miss Verna Keays of Buffalo), was adopted by the fourteenth legislature on January 31, 1917. The Great Seal of Wyoming is the heart of the flag. On the bison, once the monarch of the plains, is the seal representing the custom of branding. The colors of the State Flag are the same as those of the National Flag. The red border represents the Indian; also the blood of the pioneers who gave their lives reclaiming the soil. White is the emblem of purity and uprightness over Wyoming. Blue, the color of the sky and mountains, is symbolic of fidelity, justice and virility.

  • Historic Photographs
    Appendix F : Historic Photographs Historic Photographs Introduction In April 2013, the Project Design Team led by HDR Architecture, in association with Preservation Design Partnership, LLC and Plan One / Architects, began exploring the evolution of the Wyoming State Capitol from 1888 to present. With the help of the State of Wyoming Department of Administration and Information Division of Construction Management [AICM] and the Wyoming State Archives, the Design Team was able to obtain a number of archival photographs illustrating that evolving state of the Capitol exterior and interior throughout the building’s lifetime. The historic photographs, included as part of Appendix F, are organized in approximate chronological order and by collection. The chronological organization of the historic photographs illustrates the building evolution over time, including the major building campaigns and more subtle changes to the building. These changes include: • The presence of a wrought iron fence along the perimeter of the Capitol site • The configuration of the historic wood windows • The historic extent of gilding at the Capitol dome Performed in conjunction with parallel research of historic drawings, this information begins to tell the story of the building’s appearance and organization. How the Capitol changed over time, both architecturally and programmatically, is also evident. Analysis of the drawings and photographs contributed to our understanding of the building today, and how it has changed over time. Figure F0-1.

Vermont State House, 115 State Street, Montpelier, VT 05633 Year completed**: 1859 Architectural style: Renaissance Revival FYI: The senate chamber still has its original furnishings, plus working gas lamps, and a “gasolier”—a gaslight chandelier that was rediscovered elsewhere in 1979, refurbished, and reinstalled in the chamber. New York State Capitol, State St. and Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12224 Year completed**: 1899 Architectural style: Italian Renaissance/French Renaissance/Romanesque FYI: The Western staircase inside New York’s capitol has been dubbed the “Million Dollar Staircase,” because it cost more than a million dollars to build—in the late-1800s, no less.
