简化中文资料中说美国最高法院门楣上,紧靠C位之孔子像意味着教育。此为以讹传讹。
最高法院网站原文如下:
Here the sculpture group is by Hermon A. MacNeil, and the marble figures
represent great lawgivers, Moses, Confucius, and Solon, flanked by symbolic
groups representing Means of Enforcing the Law, Tempering Justice with Mercy
, Settlement of Disputes Between States, and Maritime and other functions of
the Supreme Court. The architrave bears the legend: "Justice the Guardian
of Liberty."
