Description
The lines of the grand staircase of the beautiful, ornate Iowa state capitol building in Des Moines lead the visitor's eye up to a large mural that extends the full length of east wall. Painted by artist Edwin Blashfield in the early 20th century, the piece is titled "Westward" and is intended to represent the arrival of the pioneers in Iowa.
