Text on card: Washington Cathedral ~ Mount St Alban, Washington D.C.
A Busy Gargoyle. The Cathedral's limestone gargoyles are used to spout rain water away from the stone walls. Their demonic or amusing forms express their creators' vivid imaginings. This Cathedral friend scurries busily on his way, briefcase in hand.
I'm surprised to discover that there is a webpage detailing each of the 112 gargoyles there. This particular gargoyle is named "Businessman a.k.a. The Yuppie", located at the east (rear) face of the southwest tower.
