Lady Justice watching over the Supreme Court of Victoria

Lady Justice above the Williams Street entrance to the Supreme Court of Victoria

Photo of the side of the historic Supreme Court of Victoria building, as well as some trees growing in front of the building. This bluestone building (completed in 1884) is built in the classical Renaissance Revival style. On the roof, above one of the building’s entrances is a large, bronze figure of Lady Justice. Unusually, Lady Justice is neither wearing a blindfold nor is she holding up the scales of justice. Those scales are resting on her knee. The Victorian state flag is flying on a pole jutting out from above the first floor of this two-storey building.
