Ceremonial architect of the American Republic — Apotheosis of Washington (1865)
**Italian-American painter who executed *The Apotheosis of Washington* in the US Capitol Rotunda (1865).** The fresco depicts George Washington undergoing apotheosis — elevated to the status of a solar deity — surrounded by Greco-Roman pagan gods (Minerva, Neptune, Mercury) and a Christianized zodiac. The work functions as a secular altar, permanently encoding solar-deity archetypes and zodiacal alignments into the geometric center of US legislative power.
