It’s the site of a photography exhibition sponsored by the bank, “Women: New Portraits,” by Annie Leibovitz.
The show includes 41 portraits of women in business, sports, politics, and culture, among them Facebook Inc.’s Sheryl Sandberg, singer Adele, incoming U.S. Senator Kamala Harris of California and tennis champions Serena Williams and Venus Williams, seen locked in an embrace. Almost all the shots were taken in the past year.
