Remember the rail of the rotunda over young Roman George Washington? Well I noticed that it has been much abused, and patched in many places. But the patches are in a slightly different color. My guess is to facilitate the distinction between original and reproduction work.
Whence the damage? Remember where we are. In the 1860's, battles were fought here, and conquering forces inflict both casual damage and souvenir hunting.
