EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic beauty of The Singing Tower, also known as "The Taj Mahal of America" located in Mountain Lake, Florida during the 1930s. A stunning example of Gothic Revival and Art Deco architecture, this iconic bell tower was designed by Milton B. Medary and stands as the centerpiece of Bok Tower Gardens. Surrounded by meticulously landscaped gardens created by Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. , this enchanting structure houses a remarkable collection of 60 carillon bells that fill the air with melodious tunes.
