This is a painting of the famous Foshay Tower in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is what it looked like in 1956, when the Foshay tower was the tallest building in the Twin Cities. Today, the tower is crowded by many other buildings that are taller. It is quite a sight to see so much sky behind the Foshay Tower, instead of the mass of sky-scrapers that now crowds the cities skyline. The original watercolor painting titled Landmarks was accepted into the 2003 Minnesota State Fair Fine Arts competition. The original painting was bought by a man with an office in the Foshay Tower. Only 3 pieces are left in this limited edition.
