If
you’ve wondered if that’s spring cleaning on the exterior of the West Building
of the National Gallery of Art, your hunch is right.

Deborah
Ziska, the National Gallery’s chief of press and public information says
“timely repairs” are underway at the building, including “re-pointing of
joints,” which are typical improvements needed on a senior structure.
The
Tennessee Pink marble wall and North portico at the Sixth Street entrance are
receiving attention, and walls and porticoes are being refreshed “with a
light mist.”
