Exactly. Even we barbarians from the north understand this symbolism of eternal power immidiately when we are confronted with it.

Textbook pantheism made real.

It is probably no coincidence then that the facades and interiors of modern (19th century) banks have a neo classical architectural style. Stability, authority, birthplace of mathematics and democracy - you can understand why architects look to Greek temples and state buildings.
