Received: March 21st, 2014
From: Jeanette (New York City, USA)
Depicts: Peace Fountain at the Cathedral Church of Saint John, the Divine (New York City, USA)

This was the last of the five postcards I've been talking about. This one shows the Peace Fountain, which sculpted by Greg Wyatt, and dedicated in 1985 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the Episcopal Diocese of New York. It's a 40-foot high bronze sculpture encircled by 120 bronze animals sculptures that compose the Children's Sculpture Garden. Also, Jeanette added that she has two twin daughters, in addition to another son I already knew she had, and it was nice to suddenly get to know such a fun detail!

Postcard stamp:
None, since it came in an envelope.
