Humility Block, Thumbprint Signature, & Harpists

Can you see the missing part of the pattern? Huge soccer-field size rug, with this one square of purposeful imperfection.
Look at the border-the round circles have a paint-print whorled thumb print, all different. I checked. The workers added their thumbprint as signature they had worked in this building.



Where am I? This was an $8.00 tour. Broad Street. Masonic Temple. They allowed photos but no video. Beautiful. Amazing murals and architecture. I figured since George Washington, Ben Franklin...even Gerald Ford were all members of a Mason Lodge, I wanted to see this #3 rated biggest/beautiful Masonic temple in the world (Scotland and...somewhere else in Europe is other one). Well worth the hour tour. More photos of interest tomorrow's blog, same place.
