Prov.10:10
 "He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow: but a prating fool shall fall."


"And this is good old Boston,
home of the bean and the cod."~~~John C. Bossidy





the official name of this structure is called Cloud Gate, and it was designed by the Indian-born British artist Anish Kapoor. It was inspired by the appearance of liquid mercury, and it gets its name from the 12 foot arch in its middle. The arch is supposed give it a gate-like appearance while it reflects the clouds and Chicago skyline. But to me, and likely many others, it’s simply what makes it look like the bean we all know and love.

Victorian architecture: mainly the gothic revival during Victoria's reign.
St. Pancras railway station and Midland Hotel in London, opened in 1868, is an example of the Gothic Revival style of architecture with Ruskinian influences. The station eclectically combined elements of Gothic architecture and other styles with materials and scale made possible by the Industrial Revolution.
