On the Prowl - a photo on Flickriver

On the Prowl

            The two bronze lions that flank the Michigan Avenue entrance were made for the Art Institute's opening at its current location in 1893. They were a gift from Mrs. Henry Field. Created by sculptor Edward Kemeys. The lions are not identical and thus are named for their poses: The north lion stands "On the Prowl."
