The same expressions of diverse western currents expressed in the Captol are also seen in and on the Supreme Court building.

On the left of center, representing lawgivers before the current era are Menes, Hammurabi, Moses, Solomon, Lycurgus, Solon, Draco, Confucius, and Augustus. On the right of center, representing lawgivers of the current era are Justinian, Mohammed, Charlemagne, King John, St. Louis, Hugo Grotius, William Blackstone, John Marshall, and Napoleon.
