Chicago library,can anyone tell me, are the birds on the corners of the building Owls or eagles(I say owls?)? |
Travel Info My sister reckons they are eagles, but i fighured owls, cos of the relevance to reading.. fab building whatever they turn out to be.. Travel Tips While 2 of the major structures include large seed pods at their centers, the other five feature owls, which serve as symbols of wisdom. A 20 foot high horned owl is nestled in the foliage above the main entrance, and 12 foot high barn owls are part of the ornamentation installed at the four corners of the building. All of the owls were designed by Raymond Kaskey of Washington, DC. The owl sculptures were sandcast in segments in Germany, then returned to the United States, where Welding Works welded together the 40 to 50 separate pieces that comprise each figure.

They are Owls - see link below http://www.richard-seaman.com/wallpaper/... they are owls, free mason / illuminati signs. I've never seen them, but if you can't tell an owl from an eagle they must be very high up or you need glasses. (or binoculars!) |
