Two Art Deco statues at the Department of Justice have been put back on show, three years after a “cover-up”.

Majesty of Justice and Spirit of Justice depict a nude man with a cloth strategically placed around his waist and a woman with one breast fully exposed. The two sculptures, in the building's Great Hall, where news conferences are often held, were covered with drapes during the tenure of former Attorney General John Ashcroft.

New Attorney General Alberto Gonzales backed the unveiling.
