Dome of Normal Hall 2 - Indiana State University

3D Model

One year ago, I made a 3D model using 15 photos from my Samsung Galaxy 7 of this dome interior. Recently, I went back with a Nikon D7200 and a tripod and reshot the dome (63 photos).

About: This dome of opalescent art glass can be seen inside Normal Hall located on Indiana State University’s campus. The dome features a reproduction in oil of Raphael’s drawing of Philosophy. Below this are a series of 24 stained glass panels that feature wreathed medalions pierced by flaming torches. In the center of each wreath is an open book of scale of justice. The names of noted philosophers and educators appear beneath the torches.

Information provided here is written on an information sign located outside of the building.
