A few words of the landmarkes shown in this postcard: at right the Sears Tower is the skyscraper which owned the title of the tallest building of the world from 1973 to 1998, it was surpassed by the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Now it is the second tallest building in the US.
In the middle: the Cloud Gate (2006) contemporary public sculpture at the center of the Millenium Park. It was designed by the Indian-British artist Anish Kapoor, known for his biomorph public sculptures all around the world. The bean form sculpture's surface was inspired by liquid mercury and it reflects the city's skyline.
