I think Georgia's Capitol Dome is actual gold leaf.
North Carolina's is copper. They had to replace part of it several years
ago it took a long time for the new part to weather to the same shade
of green as the old part.

Is this a railing to keep you from falling off of something?
It looks like it casts shadows on a wall right behind it.
