The Washington National Cathedral Gargoyles: Fish-like (27) are limestone sculptures located on the south transept of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. Carved by Oswald Delfrate and designed by an unknown artist, these fish-like gargoyles are part of the cathedral's extensive collection of decorative stone grotesques. They contribute to the Gothic Revival style and serve both aesthetic and functional roles on the cathedral's exterior.
