Then and Now The photo illustration seen to the left is a combination of two photographs. The black and white image was taken March 4, 1861, during U.S. President Abraham Lincoln’s first inauguration at the U.S. Capitol Building. The black and white photograph is part of the Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division Washington. The color photograph was taken in a similar location during the early morning of Jan. 11, 2012, less than two weeks before U.S. President Barack H. Obama’s second inauguration. The cast iron dome construction was finished in 1866 and was designed by Thomas U. Walter, according to the Architect of the Capitol website. (Photo illustration by Rachel Larue)
