FFRF Winter Solstice Sign at the WI State Capitol and Marianne Makes an Appearance

Here are some lovely shots of the WI State Capitol, the Freedom From Religion Foundation's Winter Solstice Sign, and Lady Liberty in her Red Phrygian Liberty Cap, borrowed from Marianne, the feminine icon of the French Republic.  Actually, the red phrygian liberty cap was a part of the iconography of the American Revolution as well, but, generally speaking, that memory has faded into the dusty annals of history.  But, not in France, where Marianne dons her red phrygian liberty cap with pride.
