This work is a meeting of the great minds of history, each engaged in their chosen endeavors. From left to right, these are Leonardo Da Vinci, William Shakespeare, Michelangelo Buonarotti, Galileo Galilei, Thomas Edison, Nicolaus Copernicus, John Locke, Thomas Jefferson, Issac Newton, Thomas Aquinas, Aristotle and Ayn Rand. Aristotle is showing Rand the chamber, and directing her attention at the giants whose work she must now champion and extrapolate upon. The rear windows display the scenery of the Renaissance, a past rational era, while the windows immediately behind Rand show rising skyscrapers and the emerging modern age, through which Reason must be maintained so that these great men's labor will not have passed in vain.
