This is the “Majesty of the Law” sculpture outside the Rayburn House Office Building, which is just south of the US Capitol Building between Independence Ave and C St. SW. According to DC Memorials.com, he’s holding a book of federal laws with the United States seal on the cover, and his sword is meant to represent valor. His counterpart is the female “Spirit of Justice,” and she holds a lamp to symbolize truth and righteousness. The photo was taken with the lensbaby, which is what gives it the blurry effect.
