These statues are of the same height and proportion, are robed, and appear with various attributes associated with the law, such as book, scroll, tablet, sword, charter, or scepter.<br />

Facing south on the 25th Street side is Zoroaster, which was along with all 25th Street statues moved down one bay when Mohammed was removed in 1955, following protests against this image of the prophet from Muslim nations<br />

Next on this side is Alfred the Great, followed by Lycurgus and Solon. Next to Solon is the Justice set of sculptures and then three more statues: Saint Los and Manu, and Justinian.<br />
