Category:Bronze doors of the United States Capitol

The U.S. Capitol has four sets of bronze doors.

The Rogers Doors or Columbus Doors were designed by Randolph Rogers and installed in 1871 as exterior doors between the central rotunda and the east Portico. The expansion and renovation c. 1960 created an enclosing foyer, so without moving they became interior doors.

Sculptor Thomas Crawford modeled two sets, for the Senate and House, connecting their respective wings to the east Portico. The six sculpted panels of the Senate doors, installed in 1868, depict vignettes and characters on the theme of George Washington and the Revolutionary War. The theme of the corresponding House doors, installed in 1905, is also the Revolutionary War.

The fourth set was cast in 1910, entitled Apotheosis of America, and designed by sculptor Louis Amateis for a proposed renovation of the western facade that never happened. The doors were on long-term loan to the Smithsonian, then installed in the Capitol in 1972 as an interior feature.
