The Hyatt Regency Denver showcases sculpture and artwork with a distinctively rocky mountain feel, including many pieces from local artists.For those who have always wondered what is scribed on the wall that runs the perimeter of the Hyatt Regency Downtown Denver, the mystery has been solved. Thanks to Barbara for sharing this!..

The masses of the lower hills are laid over and against their sides, like the masses of lateral masonry against the skeleton arch of an unfinished bridge, except that they slope up to and lean against the central ridge: and, finally, upon the slopes of these lower hills are strewed the level beds of sprinkled gravel, sand, and clay, which form the extent of the champaign. Here is another grand principle of the truth of earth, that the mountains must come from under all, and be the support of all; and that everything else must be laid in their arms, heap above heap, and plains being the uppermost.

John Ruskin, “O Truth of Earth”
