But is it 23 million dollars worth of inspiring? This is no Sistine Chapel, after all.

I think it sends a subliminal message, something like stained glass so as not to distract what's at eye level.

I do. It is very colorful and cerebral. I think that it is inspiring. Very appropriate as a mural for a human rights office.
