Forbidden Faces in the Library #7 & #8



This series of photos were taken inside the Library of Congress in a room just outside the personal collection of books that Thomas Jefferson had donated to the library after the burning of the original library in August of 1814.  Unbeknownst to me, this area was a no photography zone, hence the "forbidden" nature of the title.  Personally, I was intrigued by the grotesque nature of the faces which feels like an interesting choice for a library.
