An ornate five-globe cast-iron lamppost stands against a clear winter sky among bare trees, with the Prudential Tower and a second modern office slab rising beyond the brownstones. The scene is Boston's Back Bay, just south of Kenmore Square
Research
The multi-globe cast-iron lamp is characteristic of the Commonwealth Avenue Mall; the tall tower is the Prudential Center (completed 1964).
